Holy sh** my class finished reading Act 1.Here are some of the characters we met so far. Nora is the wife of torvald helmer. Torvald helmer is Nora’s husband. Mrs.Linde is Nora’s childhood friend. Krogstad is a lawyer who went to school with Torvald and holds a position at Torvald’s bank and Dr.Rank is Torvald’s best friend.The story starts on Christmas Eve. And Nora Helmer enters the house with packages and a Christmas tree. Her husband, Torvald Helmer, comes out of his study and addresses Nora with tenderness and authority, calling her his “skylark” and his “squirrel.” Nora tells Torvald that she wants to show him what she has bought, and Torvald makes fun of her for being a spender. Torvald’s new position at the bank means he will earn a large salary. Torvald replies that he will not take over that position until after the new year begins. Later on, Nora greets a female visitor and the visitor realizes that Nora does not remember her. Finally, Nora recognizes the woman as her childhood friend, Kristine Linde and remarks that Mrs.Linde has changed since they last met nine or ten years earlier. The reason why she came was because she was in need of a job and she asked if she can work with her husband, Torvald. Nora explains that the trip to Italy was quite expensive and that she got the money from her father. The family left for Italy at just about the time that Nora’s father died. Nora said that her husband has been completely well since returning from Italy and that the children are very healthy too. Nora later explains to Mrs.Linde that she had worked for the money herself by saving up.
