I still love it like I did when I was 19 reading it in my first year in college. I honestly understand it more now than I did then. At first I didn't like the fact she left the kids but now I understand why. She never felt like she was mother to them in the first place which she said. She always felt like they were her playthings like her father and then her husband treated her. It's not to say that once she discover who she truly is and what she believe that she won't come back for her kids and be a mother to them. I believe she would but she have to find herself in order to do that. This is why this play is consider fenmist cause at the end Nora did something that some women at that time dream of doing. Leaving to find themselves in this world. So A Doll's House is still one of my faves.
