All Good Things Must Come To An End

So how about that Ibsen? I liked Hedda Gabler. I was trying to decide whether I like The House Of Bernarda Abla or Hedda Gabler better and it is very hard to decide. Hedda Gabler was interesting and full of underlying meanings and action taking place. From the love triangle to Hedda's pistols to Lovborg and his ever so popular manuscript, all the many elements came together to create a successful work of literature. One of my favorite scenes in the play is when Hedda converses with Lovborg and she dishes the dirt on her marriage to Tesman, her desire to control others and the steamy, tension between the two. I was disappointed in Hedda's decision to commit suicide at the end of the play, however, the action was in line with the cowardly character Ibsen had created. The next authors better come hard because we have experienced the goods with Lorca and Ibsen!
