hi :-) my name is Aminah Miller. I have liked most about English class, reading "A raisin in the sun". that was my most favorite part of the year because i was interested in the book.

Facts on Henrik Ibsen

Henrik Ibsen was a norwegian dramatist and poet. Very soon after he began writing poetry, he published his first play, Catilina, a tragedy in verse in 1850. He was born on Mar 20, 1828 and he died on May 23, 1906. Ibsen was born to Knud Ibsen and Marichen Altenburg, a merchant family, in the small town of Skien, Norway, which was noted for shipping timber. Despite Ibsen's failure to be successful as a playwright, he gained a great deal of practical experience at the Norwegian Theater, experience that became very useful for him.

Title of book

I think the title of the play has something to do with the author. Therefore, I believe the whole story was influenced by something in the author's life. The title of it is "A Dolls House" which leads me to assume it has something to do with dolls. However, It may not have anything to do with dolls at all. All titles of books dont always give away what the story line is about. Therefore, "A Dolls House" could be about anything.
