Summary
August Strindberg: Marriages
Twelve stories from married life by the Swedish author August Strindberg. After his three unhappy marriages, he became an apparently woman-hating writer; for him, she is an irresponsible and insidious warrior of life and death; her tactics are vile, her fantasy eternally sexual, while her feline nature makes her invincible. And yet his wife is: - the initiator of all development, opposition, which gives birth to strength, fire, which purifies. These stories were written in this style, which often differ in form and ideas. Strindberg was the most serious confessor of our day; a living compendium of art that shook two generations. Reading his work makes you think.
