<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>An incendiary new play that picks up fifteen years after the conclusion of Henrik Ibsen's legendary portrait of a marriage in crisis.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"Smart, funny and utterly engrossing...This unexpectedly rich sequel reminds us that houses tremble and sometimes fall when doors slam, and that there are living people within, who may be wounded or lost...Mr. Hnath has a deft hand for combining incongruous elements to illuminating ends." --Ben Brantley, <em>New York Times</em></p> <p>It has been fifteen years since Nora Helmer slammed the door on her stifling domestic life, when a knock comes at that same door. It is Nora, and she has returned with an urgent request. What will her sudden return mean to those she left behind? Lucas Hnath's funny, probing, and bold play is both a continuation of Ibsen's complex exploration of traditional gender roles, as well as a sharp contemporary take on the struggles inherent in all human relationships across time.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An endlessly stimulating, whiplash producing, lightning-bolt of a play."--Charles Isherwood "Broadway News"<br><br>"An incredibly enjoyable play...The true triumph of <em>A Doll's House, Part 2 </em>is its refreshingly feminist political message."--Christian Lewis "Huffington Post"<br><br>"Humor abounds in Hnath's creative sequel...His script is an irreverent yet respectful take on the source material...A worthy companion piece to the original, <em>A Doll's House, Part 2 </em> is an imaginative postscript to a well-loved standard."--Maya Stanton "Entertainment Weekly"<br><br>"Provocative, funny and, ultimately, generous...<em>A Doll's House, Part 2 </em>demonstrates just how imposing is that big doorway Nora walked through once upon a time, and the guts it takes to keep walking through it, again and again."--Peter Marks "Washington Post"<br><br>Hnath has written one of this year's best plays... The focus is on the collision of viewpoints. Freedom versus responsibility, attachment versus solitude, domestic stability versus individual growth--these subjects are thrashed out in the explosive context of gender and social class.--Charles McNulty "LA Times"<br><br>Lucid and absorbing... <em>A Doll's House, Part 2 </em> judiciously balances conflicting ideas about freedom, love and responsibility.--Adam Feldman "Time Out New York"<br><br>Smart, expertly crafted, moving and very funny.--Adam Green "Vogue"<br><br>Welcome back, Nora. A terrific explosively funny new play, and an audacious Broadway debut for Lucas Hnath.--David Rooney "The Hollywood Reporter"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Lucas Hnath</strong>'s plays include <em>Hillary and Clinton</em>, <em>Red Speedo</em>, <em>The Christians</em>, <em>A Public Reading of an Unproduced Screenplay about the Death of Walt Disney</em>, <em>Isaac's Eye</em>, and <em>Death Tax</em>.
