Description
Mrs Alving has dedicated herself to suppressing knowledge of her late husband's sexual exploits but their son Oswald's inherited syphilis is the living proof. Oswald is to marry Regina, the maid, but it is revealed that she is Captain Alving's illegitimate daughter. Mrs Alving's memorial to her husband, a newly built orphanage, is burned to the ground. As the play ends, we are left wondering whether Mrs Alving will help Oswald to escape the final agonies of syphilis as she has promised to do.
