Hedda Gabler; The Pillars of the community; The Wild duck
By Henrik Ibsen.
Description
The three plays in this volume cover the period during which Ibsen was preoccupied with realistic problems of personal and social morality. In The PIllars of the Community, partly by means of symbolism, he exposes the effects of a a lie told to preserve a man's public reputation. The solution - to admit the truth - scarcely seemed so simple seven years later, when Ibsen completed The Wild Duck in apparent disillusionment. Hedda Gabler, the latest of these plays, is both a drama of individual conflict and a partial return to social themes. - from Amzon
