So far, A Doll’s House has been a very interesting story. Nora, the main character has a very self-centered personality. Throughout the first act, she makes comments that show her true selfish traits. Her husband Helmer, is oblivious in some ways. But at the same time, he makes comments that show how he feels about the role of women.
Helmer is also very loving to his wife, and he spoils her by giving her money. Also, Helmer calls her names throughout act one. I can relate because I've been called names before, and sometimes I have selfish traits, like Nora. Helmer seems to be very frivolous. He vehemently mentions her use of money and how he disagrees with it.
In act one, Dr. Rank (their friend) hasn't really interfered with Nora, or Helmer's problems. I believe Nora has a very selfish character because she's used to others providing for her, instead of her helping out and providing for others. Therefore, she's very self-centered when she talks about things throughout act one. However, act one told us a lot about the characters and their personalities.
