Written in 1879, A Doll's House has been called the first truly feminist play. A scathing critique of the traditional roles of men and women in nineteenth century marriage, it caused scandal throughout Europe at a time when marriage was regarded as the most sacred of society's institutions. In Britain this uproar led to it being banned. A Doll's House is a beautifully illustrated collector's edition of a classic text which will look good on anybody s shelf as well as making an ideal gift. It comes with an introduction to help the general reader.
