Let's go to the abyss!
I need help identifying a story. It is typically taught in most American literature classes. I don't remember anything about the plot or characters except for the ending. The main female character in the story was depressed (maybe from the loss of a child, can't remember) and decided she was going to swim out into the ocean and drown herself.

Thats all I remember. I know its vague as poo poo but its a classic book so I'm hoping TBB can help me. I initially thought it was written by James Joyce or Emily Dickinson but I can't seem to find it.

Thanks!

The Awakening by Kate Chopin. There is a whole thread for identifying books, I think. Or maybe not.

This is it, thank you. I didn't see a thread for identifying books so I figured the Chat & Questions thread was the next best option.

I need a little Christmas guidance.

I have a family member that wrote a book. This is their first attempt at writing something and it's a little rough around the edges in terms of formatting, grammar, etc...

As a gift, I'd like to hire a professional to proof read and format their book. Can anyone recommend a service that does such? Its about 18k words.

This book is more intended to be shared with family, not self-published on Amazon and attempting to sell. I just want to help them get it the best it can be, maybe get it printed and a few hardcovers for the coffee table.
