La donna del mare by Henrik Ibsen

"La donna del mare" by Henrik Ibsen is a play written in 1888. Ellida Wangel, daughter of a lighthouse-keeper, lives in a Norwegian fjord town with her physician husband and stepdaughters. Though married, she remains haunted by a former lover—a sailor who fled after murder and asked her to wait. Years later, he returns to claim her. Ellida must choose between her past and present, while her husband faces an agonizing question: can love exist without freedom? (This is an automatically generated summary.)
