Intressant som tidsdokument. ⌛
🔽⏬🔽⏬🔽⏬🔽⏬🔽⏬🔽⏬🔽⏬🔽
Denna pjäs och dess success säger mycket om den intellektuella verksamhet , och de värderingar samt beteende som efterföljer som började få genomslag i offentligheten i samband med pjäsen.
Pjäsen i sig är ganska sprallig 🤹
och lyfter ofta pengar 💰
som en stor faktor för hur relationer utspelar sig, då syftar jag främst på hur maktfördelning ser ut i relationen. Värt att lyfta är också folks identitetsökande relativt till dessa pengar och hur det präglar dessa relationer.
===--->>>>>>>
Kulminerar i en katharsis liknande upplösning när Nora tar sitt otroligt radikala beslut. ✊🔥

Seeing as how Acts I and II were so slow, I wasn't expecting to be as moved by Act III as I was.
Quotes:
"Krogstad: When I lost you, it was as though all solid ground slid from under my feet. Look at me now; I'm a man shipwrecked on a broken vessel.
Mrs Linde: Rescue could be close.
Krogstad: It was close; but then you came along and got in the way."
"Helmer: You can abandon your most sacred duties, just like that?
Nora: What, then, do you count as my most sacred duties?
Helmer: And I really need to tell you that! Aren't they the duties to your husband and your children?
Nora: I have other equally sacred duties.
Helmer: You do not. What duties could they be?
Nora: The duties to myself.
Helmer: You are first and foremost a wife and a mother.
Nora: I don't believe that any more. I believe I am first and foremost a human being. I, just as much as you- or at least, that I must try to become one...
Helmer: ... Haven't you your religion?
Nora: Oh, Torvald, I'm not even sure I know what this religion is."
"Helmer: But nobody would sacrifice their honour for the one they love.
Nora: Hundreds of thousands of women have."
"Nora: I was, just as before, your little song-lark, your doll that you would carry in your arms twice as carefully hereafter, because it was so fragile and weak. Torvald- at that moment I realized that the man I'd lived with here for eight years was a stranger and that I'd borne him three children. Oh, I can't bear to think of it! I could rip myself to pieces."

This is a really short read, less than 80 pages long.
While it wasn't exactly riveting in the beginning, the last 10 or so pages took such a major turn and a huge jump in Nora's character development that I had to read every sentence twice to take it in.
Nora is a very interesting character. She acts childlike and heavily dependent and naive, due first to how her father treated her and then to how her husband (who's a misogynistic oaf) treats her. She herself said that she's been blocked in her life, by the men who loved her the most. In front of them, she reverts to a 5 year old but in truth she's actually quite manipulative (which requires quite a measure of intelligence) and displays that she can carry her own.
The book actually does deal with quite a bit of social issues. From male pride and honour to the restricted role assigned to Nora as a woman.
Helmer is a good representation of the traditional male ego and masculinity that is so fragile it needs to dwarf and ridicule traditional female femininity. He is completely controlling of Nora and makes her heavily dependent on him and always uses terms such as "My money" "My bla bla". He also treats Nora herself like a possession. Something to flaunt and to be pretty - and she's aware of that as she planned to have kept her secret as leverage for when she's not so pretty anymore.
I could go on more but I'm still hung up on the last 10 pages.

I listened to the Audrey audiobook and I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN FOR A SECOND!!!
The narrators did a splendid job with the characters and the way the mood shifted with each line! The way you could tell their actions from the sound effects! Oh lord, it was glorious!!
This book actually made me want to cry in the last act 🥲 I felt so bad for Nora....To realise after 8 years that she was nothing but a puppet to play with. A doll to dress up and look at...
Of course, all my love to the guide who made this so much more enjoyable with the voice notes and the questions. 💛✨
This book reminded me why I love reading after a longggg reading slump 🥹🥹
