A Doll's House

"A Doll's House" by Henrik Ibsen is a groundbreaking play that explores the complexities of marriage and self-identity through the life of Nora Helmer. Set in a bourgeois household, the play reveals Nora's seemingly perfect domestic life and her seemingly dutiful role as a wife and mother. However, as the plot unfolds, it becomes evident that Nora has been living a constrained and deceptive life, masked by her husband's paternalistic control and societal expectations. When a secret from her past threatens to unravel her world, Nora confronts the harsh realities of her marriage and her own identity. Ultimately, she makes a radical decision to leave her husband and children in search of personal freedom and self-discovery, challenging the traditional norms of her time and provoking deep questions about gender roles and individual autonomy.
