Final Thoughts on Hedda Gabler

This play was ok..... it had its ups and its downs. I wished it could have been less dense so that the reading would be easier, but it didnt kill me. A couple more motifs could have been added to the play, i know it was not the author's purpose to write a play with motifs to satisfy other people, but i could have enhanced it a little in my opinion. One thing i did like about Hedda Gabler was how Ibsen had most of his characters connected to each other. Each character had and their relationship with the others was essential to understanding the book. Out of ten, Hedda Gabler would get a 6.5 from me. Well, its time to move on to the next play, Lysistrata (hope thats how you spell it). From the work we did so far, seems like it is going to top Hedda Gabler and The House of Bernarda Alba thanks to the use of puns.
