Cooked up Al Dante
|
|
Ibsen unleashes his witty imagination in his book, marking his great transition from poetry to prose. Not unlike Dante's Divine Comedy the political satire underlines the author's discontent with the social environment of his time. The style and plot line may seem a little uneven at times (to me anyway).It uses images and references to mythological tales to express its deeper purpose very cleverly. it reads like a charm, you can't put it down and it is perhaps the most enjoyable of Ibsen's writings. (the ending is exceptional).-Reg Dury.
