About The Author

Henrik Ibsen

Henrik Ibsen was born at Skien in Norway in 1828. He turned to journalism and playwriting instead of pursuing a university career. Ibsen was one of the earliest writers to dramatise the individual’s alienation from society. Although Ibsen was never fully appreciated during his lifetime, he has since come to be recognised as one of the great dramatists of all time and the “Father of Modern Drama.”

Peter Watts trained as a doctor at Cambridge but then turned to journalism and the theatre.
