The plays in this volume focus on the family and how it struggles to stay together by telling lies - and exposing them. In “Ghosts”, Osvald Alving returns home only to discover the truth about the father he always looked up to, and learns the horrific effect his father's debauchery has had on him. It was Ibsen's most provocative drama, stripping away the surface of a middle-class family to expose layers of hypocrisy and immorality.
