I had given this play a fairly ordinary review when I first commented on it, simply because when I studied it at high school I was put off by the fact that Nora simply up and left, and in a way it felt like she had undergone an inexplicable and sudden change. However, after reading [book:Peer Gynt] ...

Ibsen is credited as the father of modern drama. Certainly this play backs that up. It looks at the realities of middle class life and has an emphasis on realism. It is also an attack on the falseness and hypocrisy of many marriages.However, despite the necessarily truncated story and fast action...

Uvek se nadvije nešto ružno i nešto što sputava nad domom koji je zasnovan na pozajmici i dugu. Teško je ne složiti se sa mužem junakinje drame. Samo, teško je i ne zapitati se - koji to dom NIJE zasnovan na pozajmici i dugu. Junak je samo prokomentarisao materijalni aspekt pozajmice, ali je autor o...
