A masterpiece of theatrical craft which, for the first time portrayed the tragic hypocrisy of Victorian middle class marriage on the stage. The play ushered in a new social era and "exploded like a bomb into contemporary life". This edition includes a detailed biography of the author as a final chapter. This is the story of a marriage that superficially seems happy, but a critical turn of events reveals a sham relationship. A Doll's House is a three-act play written by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen.The play is significant for the way it deals with the fate of a married woman, who at the time in Norway lacked reasonable opportunities for self-fulfillment in a male-dominated world, despite the fact that Ibsen denies it was his intent to write a feminist play. It aroused a great sensation at the time, and caused a "storm of outraged controversy" that went beyond the theatre to the world newspapers and society. Ibsen's famous A Doll's House is a landmark in the development of truly independent female heroines, rejecting the patriarchy they were socialised to accept unconditionally.
