Nora
Henkeäsalpaavan kaunis historiallinen romaani itsenäisestä naisesta miesten maailmassa.Noran elämässä miehet ovat aina kohdelleet häntä kuin lasta – ensin Noran isä, sitten hänen aviomiehensä Torvald. Ja Nora on aina sopeutunut. Vain naiset ovat haastaneet häntä älyllisesti ja seksuaalisesti. Nora elää kaksoiselämää alistuvana vaimona ja itsenäisesti ajattelevana yksilönä.Masennukseen taipuvainen Torvald muuttuu etäiseksi heidän esikoisensa syntymän jälkeen. Kallis hoitomatka Italiaan voisi auttaa, joten Nora väärentää isänsä allekirjoituksen ja ottaa lainan matkaa varten. Mutta mitä enemmän Torvald Italiassa palautuu, sitä enemmän valtaa hänellä on Noraan ja sitä tyhjemmältä Norasta tuntuu."Nora" pohjautuu Henrik Ibsenin mestariteokseen "Nukkekoti", joka herätti aikoinaan kohun kritisoimalla naisten kahlehdittua asemaa. Merete Pryds Hellen romaani syventää Ibsenin legendaarisen päähenkilön kehitystarinaa kontrolloidusta tytöstä vapaaksi ja itsenäiseksi naiseksi.It is simply breathtakingly beautiful, and Merete Pryds Helle has brilliantly captured the characters and themes of the original text while bringing us a step deeper and closer to the characters.-Bogtanken.dk-
