Doll's House Flashcards
Examples of what Torvald calls Nora
‘Squanderbird’ ‘Spendthrift’
‘Oh Nora, Nora…’
how like a woman
You know I could
never act against your wishes
he’s proud of being a man…humiliating for him
He’s so proud of being a man-it’d be so painful and humiliating for him to know he owed everything to me
To see me dance
and dress and play fool for him
He’s crippled all right
morally twisted
pops a
macaroon in her mouth
Ive the most
extraordinary longing to say ‘Bloody Hell’
An atmosphere of lies
Poisons and contaminates the household
I’m first and foremost
a human being
First and foremost you are
a wife and a mother
What Nora says about the whole experience
determined to find out the truth about myself and my life
A home founded on
debts can never be a place of freedom or beauty
