The Master Builder and Other Plays

By Henrik Ibsen

$4.00

The four plays in this volume, written late in Ibsen’s career as a dramatist, move away from his earlier preoccupation with people at odds with society to instead explore the inward struggle with their own thoughts, feelings and dreams.

“The Master Builder” (1892) depicts a powerful man whose illusions collapse in the face of a young woman’s courageous common sense. In “Rosmersholm” (1886), an idealist is forced to question his beliefs and confront terrible truths about the past, while “Little Eyolf” (1894) portrays a man’s self-deception, which brings both tragic repercussions for his family and new hope for their future. And in “John Gabriel Borkman” (1896), a dying woman returns to reclaim the affections and loyalty of her nephew, resulting in a bitter struggle with her sister.
