Ghosts and other Plays -Henrik Ibsen

Description

Henrik Ibsen’s *Ghosts and Other Plays* brings together three of his searching and provocative dramas: *Ghosts*, *A Public Enemy*, and *When We Dead Wake*. Across the collection, Ibsen examines the tensions between individual freedom and social convention, exposing the secrets, compromises and conflicts beneath respectable appearances. *Ghosts* explores the consequences of a family’s hidden past, while *A Public Enemy* considers the struggle between truth and public opinion, and *When We Dead Wake* turns inward to questions of love, art and sacrifice. Together, the plays demonstrate Ibsen’s remarkable ability to examine human relationships and social morality with psychological depth and unsparing honesty.
