About this ebook

Henrik Ibsen's "Ghosts" stands as a poignant exploration of the moral complexities and haunting consequences of past choices, manifesting his signature realist style. Set in a confined Norwegian household, the narrative unfolds around Helen Alving, who grapples with the ghosts of her husband's philandering and her own complicity in societal norms. Through sharp dialogue and dramatic tension, Ibsen delves into themes of heredity, repression, and the struggle for personal authenticity against the backdrop of 19th-century societal expectations. The play challenges conventional morality and invites readers to confront the lingering effects of one's actions, thus situating it firmly within the broader context of modern drama.
