Items related to Ghosts (Thrift Editions)
Powerful psychological drama (1881) exposes hypocrisy of social conventions and society's moral codes. Mrs. Helen Alving is haunted by her husband's infidelities and the disease he has passed to their son. Ultimately, she is forced to acknowledge the "ghosts" that have kept her from living "just for the joy of life."

Review:
An open drain; a loathsome sore unbandaged; a dirty act done publicly; a lazar-house with all its doors and windows open. --The Telegraph on the UK premier of Ghosts in 1891
The harrowing portrait of a family coming to terms with its past has a message that remains universal. Certainly, if you are seeking a play that defines "Broken Britain", I fancy that this will do as well as any... Raw and unsparing, but also devastatingly true to the spirit of the original... theatre seldom, if ever, comes greater than this. Five Stars. --The Sunday Telegraph on Richard Eyre's translation for the Almeida Theatre, 2013.

Only Shakespeare's plays are performed more frequently than those of Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906). The Norwegian playwright, theater director, and poet scandalized many of his contemporaries as he led the theater into the modern era by exploring the realities behind 19th-century social conventions.
