Act III

     Wow. What an ending. Ms. Linde in what seemed to initially be an act of selfishness ended up setting Nora free. In retrospect, everything seemed to change too rapidly. Krogstad's position was too easily shifted by Ms. Linde's note and discussion, and Nora's moment of clarity came off extremely exaggerated. I guess I'm just being critical of the story because the first two acts were very detailed and well paced and then the final act felt like a rush to tie everything together. It made the whole story feel less authentic. In any case, Nora realizes that the last 8 years of her life have just been an extension of her childhood, playing the role of someone's doll. She decides she wants to make something of herself and leaves Torvald with very little hope of a return.
