This collection of plays by Swedish playwright and writer, August Strindberg, are a testimony to his title as "the father of modern literature" in Sweden, as well as to his distinction as one of the most important playwrights of the 20th century. Beginning with two of his popular, early plays, "The Father" and "Miss Julie", this edition explores Strindberg's crucial transition from Naturalism to Modernism, concluding with "The Dance of Death", "A Dream Play", and "The Ghost Sonata". As an author unafraid of exploring new possibilities in dramatic fiction, Strindberg is noted for his psychological realism, blatant misogyny, symbolism, and his utterly fluid and subjective sequences of events. His works bore intense scrutiny in their time, but have since been recognized for the prodigious influence they exhibited not only in the Naturalist and Expressionist genres, but on modern theatre as a whole. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
August Strindberg's novel The Red Room centers on the civil servant Arvid Falk as he tries to find meaning in his life through the pursuit of writing. He's accompanied by a crew of painters, sculptors and philosophers each on their own journey for the truth, who meet in the "Red Room" of a local restaurant. Drawing heavily on August's own experiences, The Red Room was published in Sweden in 1879. Its reception was less than complimentary in Sweden-a major newspaper called it "dirt"-but it fared better in the rest of Scandinavia and soon was recognised in his home country.
