Publisher's Synopsis

Drama Classics: The World's Great Plays at a Great Little Price

Should the truth be pursued, whatever the cost? The idealistic son of a wealthy businessman seeks to expose his father's duplicity and to free his childhood friend from the lies on which his happy home life is based.

Henrik Ibsen's play The Wild Duck, considered a masterpiece of modern tragicomedy, was premiered in January 1885 at Den Nationale Scene, Bergen, Norway.

This English translation by Stephen Mulrine is published in the Nick Hern Books Drama Classics series, with a full introduction.
