pickThis is the first play by Ibsen that I‘ve read. I think the translator (Michael Meyer) did a good job rendering the different classes in the language of the characters and the names/titles they address each other with. It‘s an interesting critique of marriage and the freedoms/responsibilities of women in the late 19th century in upper middle class society.
7.5/10
My March #BookSpin read (a couple days late I‘m afraid!)
pickMy mind, it is blown.
Also, this chick is crazy.
Uncovered these in a box , knew when I last posted about #plays ,that I had a set somewhere.
pickLady Susan and Hedda Gabler were great of read back to back. Both stories of manipulative women who try to toy with others lives. Loved reading to see how Hedda‘s plans and deceptions played out. For me this was a five star read. #litsyatoz #letterI. (Also learned from intro the A is pronounced like the A in garden.)
pickThe play was a quick, yet thought provoking, read. I finished it one sitting. Ibsen wrote it in the late 1800s and it amazed me to see how some of the topics are still relevant: marriages of convenience, merging families and money. Timeless issues for our species.
Enjoying doing homework outside, now that the weather is reasonable #college
More classic theater tonight! I love Ruth Wilson!
A little read for school this weekend... Have any of you read Hedda Gabler? We're reading it this weekend and seeing the play next week!
I am actually on the ball enough to post a #FunFridayPhoto today! Go me! Today's theme is flowers, and I have flowers 🌺 on my spines. 😍 I love these books. I'm trying to start collecting them.
pickWell I was wrong to doubt this! Incredibly play with some fascinating characters, cannot wait to dig further into this!
More reading for class. Previously read 'A Doll's House' with mixed feelings so slightly wary!
Not too shabby if I do say so myself! 🎉🎉🎉 #readingchallenge
