Plays 1: Ghosts / The Wild Duck / The Master Builder

0/5 ( ratings)

The plays in this volume range from the once shockingly realistic Ghosts , 'the play that launched a thousand ships of critical fury'; through The Wild Duck with its innovatory symbolism and its touching portrait of a fourteen-year-old girl held in thrall by her feckless father ; to The Master Builder , showing the semi-autobiographical relationship between an ageing genius and a dynamic young woman.
Michael Meyer's translations are 'crisp and cobweb-free, purged of verbal Victoriana'
