Ibsen's follow-up, <i>Ghosts</i>, was no less radical, with its unrelenting investigation into religious hypocrisy, family secrets, and sexual double-dealing. These two masterpieces are accompanied here by <i>The Pillars of Society</i> and <i>An Enemy of the People</i>, both exploring the tensions and dark compromises at the heart of society.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>HENRIK IBSEN<b> </b>(1828-1906) is often called 'the Father of Modern Drama'.
