{"product_id":"9780141961439","title":"The Master Builder and Other Plays","description":"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.","brand":"Penguin Books, Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47108847698160,"sku":"9780141961439","price":15.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780141961439_p0.jpg?v=1763656170","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780141961439","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
