Act II

     Welcome back to my blog as we know we haved finished Act II. Nora has a lot of explaining to do. She still has more stories and now suicide. What? With the truth coming out we read that Dr.Rank has a love for Nora and he is dieing. To much in a short period of time."how painful and humiliating it would be for Torvald" [pg197 Ibsen].  Nora  is a big liar and a flirt.Mrs.Linde tries to talk Krogstad into not giving the letter. I think Krogstad is a hypocrite because he shows no emotions for other people.."now you've been warned, so don't do anything stupid. I shall expect to hear from Helmer as soon as he gets my letter" (Ibsen pg 200). The most juicy part in Act II was when Nora was trying to get it on with Dr. Rank but when the doctor told her he loved her Nora heart dropped and Nora couldn't ask him for a favor. Nora has to dance the Tarantella for her husband.  Nora decides to commit suicide in exactly " thirty-one hours to live" (Ibsen pg  206).
     
Questions:
  • Will Nora commit suicide. 
  • What will happen to Nora and Helmers relationship? What about 
  • her lies will they ever stop?

  1. I agree. Nora lies too much and she plays around too much. Mrs.Linde was a great person to help Nora out with this situation. Great blog Fiyaad!!

  2. I think Nora won't commit suicide. I think she'll be close to it & Helmer will save her. Then, she'll realize that she isn't supposed to die and she will finally tell Helmer the truth. I don't think Nora and helmer will last very long, and I think that Dr. Rank will soon become Nora's new husband

  3. I agree that Nora won't to commit suicide, I think she want end everything with Helmer but she didn't had the courage to do so. Finally she tell Helmer the truth about the money and Helmer behave like he is the boss..........Dr. Rank came and leave his last good-bye to the HELMERS.
