One of the four "great" Norweigan playwrights, Ibsen does not disappont!

This is one of my favorite books of all time. Insane. Take your time to really understand it and take your time to read. I love it so much. Read it in my 8th grade English class and I've pretty much read it every year since.

Very moving play, I read it in AP Lit and love the concepts in it. We discussed how the play is the actual doll house and that the people or society watching the play are the ones manipulating Nora and the other characters. Very interesting and loved the strong ending.

One of the things I did enjoy about this play is that it does look at how women of the 19th century were trapped within their marriages and how they couldn’t then be their own person. Some of what is discussed in the play is something that we as viewers are familiar with and that means we can be dropped in to the middle of it without needing too much context for it.

One of the things that didn’t seem to flow so well for me, was that Nora says that she and her husband have never had a serious conversation during the 8 years of their marriage, but they have. And they were both in the previous two acts of the play.

All in all, that is something that can be forgiven because it is a good play. And one that would be better when seen performed, I think.
