Period 1 

  After Nora leaves Torvald and the children lots of things drastically change. Nora now is living independently and free. She doesn’t have to obey by anyone's rules. She learned plenty of things most important the value of life itself. She writes to the children more than she writes to Torvald. 

  Torvald writes to her about how he tumultously misses her and how he wants her to come back home. For Nora she hasn't found home yet. She is unterbered by Torvalds feelings towards her and she tries to evade him. Nora has found a job and is no more stealing. She realizes that stealing leads to a lot of trouble and she wants to avoid that. She will one day go back to home if Torvald changes,but if he doesn’t she wants to take her children.She wants to be more in their lives.

Period 1

Things are getting wild! Nora is so worried because Krogstad put the letter in Helmer's mail. She feels so bad that it makes her have thoughts about committing suicide. Dr. Rank is shown as a man that is refined, but turns out to be unpredictable. He confesses his love for Nora, and tells her that he is soon dying.

Based on all of the lies that Nora has told this is her retribution. She lies again and again to Helmer, the maid, etc. If Helmer reads this letter she would have a disputable reputation and she would not be seen as good anymore. Mrs. Linde trying to help her out doesn’t really make sense. I feel that Nora should learn on her own.

Period 1 

The play, A Doll's House, is a good play so far. Nora, the wife in the play is very jauntily and takes a lot of her pride in her looks. She potrays herself as an liar. Helmer, her husband, on the other hand is a strict man. They have a father and daughter type of relationship. For example, Helmer calls her his squirrel.  

Mrs. Linde, a friend of Nora's is a refined woman. She tries to convince Nora to tell her husband the truth. Nora is also seen incredulously. Krogstad, the lawyer is very clever. He says that he is going to blackmail Nora if she doesn’t do what he wants her to do. He says "Look Mrs. Helmer, you know that’s a very dangerous admission."

Blog post 

Hey my name is Jose Cruz and I play baseball. I liked the stories that we have read and I look to expand on writing my essays more efficiently. The author of a doll's house, Henrik Ibsen, was born in Norway. He was exiled to Italy and moved to Germany where he wrote A doll's House. He was the oldest of five children. His father was a successful merchant and his mother was a painter.  

I'm not quite sure what the title indicates. I think the play might be about his life living in a farm. His play might be about his influence on other plays. The theme might focus on his life struggles. The play should be a great play and I am looking forward to it!
