Rather a trial for me, as this isn't really my preferred style, and given the choice, I think I'd rather read Balzac, who at least doesn't make pretensions to artistic worth. Of these three plays, only Ghosts seems all that well-made; the wonderful turn at the end of A Doll's House might be of interest to literary historians, but it's hard for someone like me (i.e., someone who has read a bit of 20th century drama; also, not unrelated, someone who was never oppressed by 19th century bourgeois norms or an idiot husband) to get enthralled by it. Enemy is tiresomely didactic; Pillars saccharine. Those more interested in defending Ibsen might well argue that that's all irony, and perhaps they're right, but if so, it doesn't come across well enough.

This book contains four of Ibsen's most important plays in superb modern translations. With her assertion that she is "first and foremost a human being," rather than a wife, mother or fragile doll, Nora Helmer sent shockwaves throughout Europe when she appeared in Henrik Ibsen's greatest and most famous play, A Doll's House. Ibsen's follow-up, Ghosts, was no less radical, with its unrelenting investigation into religious hypocrisy, family secrets, and sexual double-dealing. These two masterpieces are accompanied here by The Pillars of Society and An Enemy of the People, both exploring the tensions and dark compromises at the heart of society.
