«Casa de Muñecas» is the play by Norwegian dramatist Henrik Ibsen, published by Losada in paperback (175 pages, in Spanish).
Nora Helmer, married to a man she saved years ago through a financial ruse, hides a sharp intelligence behind her apparent frivolity. The growing tension turns her monotonous bourgeois life into a suffocating trap, confronting her with contradictory values that threaten her happiness.
The piece dates from 1879 and was first published in Norwegian as «Et dukkehjem»; Ibsen, born in 1828 and died in 1906, set the course of modern European theatre.
A classic of world theatre and regular reading in schools; it will also interest those exploring the origins of feminist drama.
Henrik Johan Ibsen was a Norwegian playwright. He is considered one of the world's pre-eminent writers of the 19th century and is often referred to as "the father of modern drama". He pioneered theatrical realism but also wrote lyrical epic works. His major works include Brand, Peer Gynt, Emperor and Galilean, A Doll's House, Ghosts, An Enemy of the People, The Wild Duck, Rosmersholm, Hedda Gabler, The Master Builder, and When We Dead Awaken. In 2014 Ibsen was considered the most frequently performed dramatist in the world after Shakespeare. Store norske leksikon describes him as "the center of the Norwegian literary canon".
