Synopsis
The Wild Duck
$15.99
Henrik Ibsen adapt David Eldridge
Published by Methuen
Ibsen's innovative drama of truth and personal
liberty asks if the truth be pursued whatever the cost
The idealistic son of a wealthy businessman seeks to expose his father's duplicity and to free his childhood friend from the lies on which his happy home life is based
With its innovatory symbolism and its touching portrait of a fourteen-year-old girl held in thrall by her feckless father, this is one of Ibsen's most frequently staged plays
