Ghost Sonata and When We Dead Awaken: A Dramatic Epilogue in Three Acts (Crofts Classics)

Together in this volume are two plays by the Scandinavian geniuses of modern drama, which focus on a single theme–the reality of death. Translated and edited by Thaddeus L. Torp, this edition contains both August Strindberg's Ghost Sonata and Henrik Ibsen's When We Dead Awaken for performance and study and includes an introduction, a chronology of principal works and important events in the authors' lives, and a bibliography.

Johan August Strindberg was a Swedish playwright, novelist, poet, essayist and painter. A prolific writer who often drew directly on his personal experience, Strindberg's career spanned four decades. Henrik Ibsen is the author of Ghost Sonata and When We Dead Awaken: A Dramatic Epilogue in Three Acts, published by Wiley.
