    Yes! A popular choice I think. And one whose books are still in print!! As a bookseller that is a HUGE bonus

      Brona, these essays are gems. Also there is a book “5 plays by Jon Fosse” that is excellent. Quick reads but you feel Fosse’s genius in all of them. I especially loved “Suzannah”. It is biographical theater on Henrik Ibsen. The play presents a fictional representation of the relationship between Henrik Ibsen and his wife, Suzannah Thoresen Ibsen.

        I’ll have to take your word on the plays. I struggle to read plays, unless it’s one I’ve actually seen!

          Suzannah…you can read it like a mini, mini novella. Amazing to read what the relationship between Ibsen and his wife could be…as imagined by the Nobel Prize winner, Fosse. Reading time? 1 hr not even
