| A Doll's House |
| Henrik Ibsen (1828 - 1906) |
Written in 1879, A Doll's House is scathingly critical of the traditional gender roles in marriage in those times. In the story, a stifled Nora learns that her husband is not actually the noble person she imagined and decides to leave him, her children and her "Doll House". Shocking to readers when first published. Critically acclaimed still. |
