Peer Gynt: A Dramatic Poem
Book Description
This high-spirited poetical fantasy, based on Norwegian folklore, is the story of an irresponsible, lovable hero. The play focuses on the problems of choice, and of identity. "What is it to be one self", Peer asks in the end, and gets the answer: "to overcome one's self". After its publication, Ibsen abandoned the verse form for more realistic prose plays.
