Henrik Ibsen
About this listen
Nora Helmer has everything a young housewife could want: Beautiful children, an adoring husband, and a bright future. But when a carelessly buried secret rises from the past, Nora’s well-calibrated domestic ideal starts to crumble. Ibsen’s play is as fresh today as it was when it first stormed the stages of 19th-century Europe.
Recorded in Los Angeles before a live audience at the James Bridges Theater, UCLA in September, 2011.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
No. The couple are as superficial as each other. He is (amoung other things) a control freak, she is a kept woman obsessed with beauty and money. Realization dawns and she leaves. The story ends without addressing child custody, where she would go and what on earth she will do.Would you recommend A Doll House (Dramatized) to your friends? Why or why not?
No. I didn't mind it, but not sure who would want to hear the play. You are excluded from a little bit of humour relying on sound effects. The door slamming could have been a gun-shot from as he commits suicide. You don't know if the children where with her or left behind, from what you pick up, the later probably.What about the narrators’s performance did you like?
N/ADid A Doll House (Dramatized) inspire you to do anything?
No, but I would try more dramatized audios.Any additional comments?
From an entertainment point of view and at the price the audio was enjoyable. The cast sound like they put on a good show.Superfical wife, superficial controlling husband
