Description
Two masterful verse dramas by Henrik Ibsen, now brought together in a single volume. This collection features Geoffrey Hill's acclaimed stage version of Brand, alongside his new poetic rendering of Peer Gynt, published for the first time.
The contrasting works showcase Ibsen's exploration of free will, sacrifice, and the self. The fantastical adventures of Peer Gynt celebrate life in all its exuberance, while Brand presents an unsparing vision of an idealistic priest living by his steely faith.
