Read the excerpt from chapter 11 of The Awakening. Edna began to feel like one who awakens gradually out of a dream, a delicious, grotesque, impossible dream, to feel again the realities pressing into her soul. The physical need for sleep began to overtake her; the exuberance which had sustained and exalted her spirit left her helpless and yielding to the conditions which crowded her in.

Which best captures the image conveyed by the phrases “pressing into her soul” and “conditions which crowded her in”?
A an open air porch
B a vast untamed ocean
C a bed heavy with blankets
D a small prison cell
