This volume collects some of Henrik Ibsen's most important and influential plays, translated into English by three of the top translators of their time. 'Rosmersholm' explores themes of love, guilt, and redemption in the aftermath of a tragic death. 'The Lady from the Sea' deals with a woman's struggle to find her own identity in a patriarchal society. And 'Hedda Gabler' is a powerful study of gender dynamics, as a woman of privilege struggles to assert herself in a world that seeks to suppress her. For students of drama and literature, this is an essential collection.
