{"product_id":"9780140441468","title":"A Doll's House and Other Plays","description":"The three plays in this volume demonstrate different sides of Henrik Ibsen's genius, but all deal with themes of alienation from society and the breaking down of convention. \u003ci\u003eA Doll's House\u003c\/i\u003e (1879) portrays a woman questioning her duty to her husband and seeking to escape the stifling confines of her marriage - a theme that shocked contemporary audiences and established Ibsen's name outside Scandinavia. In \u003ci\u003eThe League of Youth\u003c\/i\u003e (1869), his first prose drama, Ibsen created a vivid comedy about a hypocritical politician, and in \u003ci\u003eThe Lady from the Sea\u003c\/i\u003e (1888), he depicts a woman who longs to return to the life she enjoyed before she was married.\u003cp\u003e Peter Watts's lively modern translation is accompanied by an introduction examining Ibsen's life and times, with individual discussions of each of the three plays.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47010717827312,"sku":"9780140441468","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780140441468_p0.jpg?v=1763642588","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780140441468","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
