To create a literary three by three for The Awakening by Kate Chopin, one must first consider the essence of each part of the novel. 
The beginning establishes Edna Pontellier as a bored wife and mother who defines herself by her duties to her family. That boredom comes to a head when she spends the summer on Grand Isle with her family. During the week, the men go to work while the women stay with the children.
She spends most of that summer with Robert. For the first time, she's able to see herself as a complete person outside of her family. It creates a change in her character and sends her on an emotional quest to find herself.
This quest takes the form of new activities, like painting. She also makes new friends and ignores her traditional responsibilities to her family. Robert has left, concerned that they're getting too close and out of respect for her marriage. Edna finds out from a friend that he's still thinking of her.
She leaves her husband and has an affair. Robert returns and confesses his love but then leaves to protect her from shame. Edna returns to Grand Isle and walks into the ocean, swimming out to sea to commit suicide.
So the beginning of the story is about establishing Edna's character. The second part is about her search for a personal identity and freedom from her familial duties. The final part is about losing the person she loves and choosing to commit suicide rather than return to her life.
