On Thursday we recently finished reading Act I to A Doll’s House and so far I liked the book. The main character, Nora, is very childish, conceited, immature and so full of herself. There are many weird emotions in her attitude towards other people. But one awkward thing that I’ve been thinking about is that when no one is around, she is actually smart and useful. That’s how she save Trovald (Nora’s husband) when he was sick and about to die. She also kept this a secret and only told it to her childhood best friend Ms. Linde. My question now is ‘Why in the world does Nora act smart behind people’s backs?’
On the other hand, her husband, Trovald, treats Nora like a baby and calls her many weird names like a songbird. WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN? She is not a child anymore, she has three children. On top of that he is very rude to her at times. He also doesn’t like being in debt and hates to barrow money but Nora does it anyways. Trovald makes Nora feeling very very dumb in my point of view. This leads to my next question ‘Is Nora going to get tired of Trovald treating her like this and spas out on him about this?’
Towards the end of the chapter we meet Dr. Rank. Sure he is a close friend but why in the world is Nora flirting with him? Do they or did they have an affair? This seems very suspicious. Can’t wait to see what happens next between Nora, Dr. Rank and Trovald. J
