The Lady from the Sea: A Play (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781979590860)

This symbolic play is centred on a lady called Ellida. She is the daughter of a lighthouse-keeper, and grew up where the fjord met the open sea; she loves the sea. She is married to Doctor Wangel, a doctor in a small town in West Norway (in the mountains). He has two daughters (Bolette and Hilde) by his previous wife, now deceased. He and Ellida have a son who dies as a baby, which puts a big strain on their marriage. Wangel, fearing for Ellida's mental health, has invited up Arnholm, Bolette's former tutor and now the headmaster of a school in hope that he can help Ellida.
