As I continue to read A Doll’s House, I am really able to enjoy it and understand the characters more. During the first act we have learned a lot about each character. Nora is a much different person around her husband, Torvald. Torvald treats Nora like a child, but around him she never seems to mind. In my opinion Nora seems childish as well. She lies and begs in order to get her way. Nora also seems very persistent when she needs something.
As the play continues there is more revealed about each character. We learned that Nora has borrowed money from Krogstad in order to help pay for her husband’s recovery while he was ill. Nora had been very sneaky and forged her father’s signature on the paper stating she borrowed money. Torvald already explained in the play to Nora how he didn’t like borrowing money from people. Although Nora believes it was for a good cause to save her husband’s life, she now appears to be very scared of what may happen to her. Nora would have gone to any extent at the time to save Torvald’s life at the time of his sickness. Throughout A Doll’s House we continue to go into further detail of each character and what they are really like.
