The Power of a Backward Shot

Guns, one of mans most deadly inventions available to almost anyone. In the hands of a person, it is able to take someone else's life.

Hedda Gabler/Tesman craved for power and the ability to control others. Her pistols are often described as a symbol of power. Shes uses them to exert her will and was able to kill anyone of the men she pointed them at. She was able to manipulate anyone into doing what she wanted. Hedda preyed on people such as George and Lovborg. However, she was unable to control this power and Judge Brack was able to easily take the pistol away from her when it was pointed at him. Ironically, she was unable to control people but not the tool that she used to do this task. Sadly, the tools of her trade in my opinion out grew her. The power she wanted was too much for her to handle and back fired on herself........... literally.
