I was questioning why the play is called "The Doll House" until the last 20mins of it, and it made perfectly clear why. Ibsen was not playing around about the title.
I listened to the audiobook narrated by a cast so it was like listening to an actual play on stage, with soun effects and audience reactions. There were funny dialogues and scenes that were light-hearted and made the story more entertaining. The main character who is portrayed as a foolish spoiled woman who knows nothing about the world. Just like a doll. The final 20mins gives her the revelation why she is that way.The whole story revolves around a woman trapped without her knowing in a patriarchal society finally coming to understand the women's place in the society and marriage which baffles her.
