Download Hedda Gabler Audiobook (Unabridged)

" This was a wonderful start to my senior year in college. The story was very frustrating but intriguing. I loved that I couldn't put it down and had to read in one straight sitting. It will make u think! "

" 3 1/2 Stars. After the minute details of the plot faded and the imagined setting became hazy, the personality that is Hedda stayed with me. Although I found her near psychotically manipulative, something about her--perhaps the blatancy of the cage society holds her in--struck a deep emotional chord with me. "

" i like reading plays with friends! "

" Ha! Great story. Going to see the play in a few weeks. I bet Ibsen had a ball writing this. "

" Hedda Gabler is one of those characters many would find easier to hate than love, or even be indifferent to. She is a manipulative bitch, to put it lightly. But somehow, towards the end, Hedda managed to garner sympathy from this reader. She was an ambitious woman who was trapped in the life she had crafted for herself. She could have made better choices but she didn't and the conclusion left me with the bitter aftertaste of regret for what she could have been. "

" I love Hedda. My favorite Ibsen. "

" Well, I couldn't imagine a more vindictive and manipulative woman than Hedda Gabler. The audacity of Hedda certainly keeps you riveted. "

" Stylistically it's a bit dated but still interesting. "

" I don't remember much about it. "

" Hedda is kind of a stuck-up, manipulative, hopelessly romantic to the point of nihilistic woman, with an unsubsidizable pride and exaggerated sense of aestheticism. This is an extremely difficult character to portray that when I read the script, I just love Hedda and in some way see myself in her but when seeing it onstage she was such a bitch I just needed to punch her on the face 8-}. Anyways, the character's ambiguity and openness to interpretation is precisely what to love I guess "

" Too many real-life parallels here. The desire of wanting to break/manipulate stupid people...alas, I don't have Hedda's heart. Like every female actress, I'd like to play her. "

" Once again I learned that bored bourgeois women left to their own devices...somehow always end up doing extremely selfish and inhumane things. BESTPLAYEVER! "

" I thought it was an okay play, but it did contain alot of information that needed to be found by reading inbetween the lines. "

" I think I read this book for school of some kind. I do remember liking it as a feminist statement of an independent woman. "

" Florence wrote in her diary, "Read Hedda Gabler for the tenth time." I read this while writing The Red Leather Diary, but not ten times! "

" Finally, an Ibsen story that doesn't use the word "Pooh!" "

" One of my favorite female characters ever, call me evil, I'm not gonna change my opinion about Hedda. I find her amazing -and that little devilishness only adds up to her greatness. "

" Alright. A good example of naturalism, maybe takes a few reads to get into. Characters are hard to delve into, but quite interesting after some investigation. "

" This was sort of like an episode of Desperate Housewives. Just imagine some crazy broad who lived about 100 years ago making all of her firends and nieghbors miserable and that's what this is. "

" Tragic drama. It's actually a playwright which has been made into a quick book. "

" I just don't like her. "

" I wasn't able to maintain interest in, finish or retain a lot of what I read as a drug-addled freshman, but this play really stood out to me as one I couldn't put down. It was really good, and very painful (I think she burns a manuscript?) and it makes me want to read more Ibsen now that I'm sober. "

" Read Ibsen. That is all. "

" I passionately despise the main character of this play. "

" i had to read that book for an assignment at the university.. i found it interesting and somehow bold for the time written.. i don't know if i liked Hedda's character a lot.. and from what i remember ( i read it last year) it kind of reminds me of Jane Austen's type of books.. good book though.. "

" Characters very complex - not often you find yourself disliking someone yet sympathising with a character like I did with Hedda "

" Im so confused with Hedda...she comes across as such a cold-hearted, stuck-up, rude prima donna and then she does what she does at the end...and I cant figure out what exactly was the cause. Other than she being extremely unhappy and insane. Ahh Ibsen, explain thy self. "

" This chic has got balls...Hedda is a "mind ninja"...to quote Mary Molly from my AP English class and OH! does she love her guns! "

" Alright. A good example of naturalism, maybe takes a few reads to get into. Characters are hard to delve into, but quite interesting after some investigation. "

" Love it!
"Female Hamlet" is surely stronger than Hamlet himself... or so I think~ "

" This was sort of like an episode of Desperate Housewives. Just imagine some crazy broad who lived about 100 years ago making all of her firends and nieghbors miserable and that's what this is. "

" It was so weird...I couldn't understand the main character at all. But it was interesting. "

" I thought it was an okay play, but it did contain alot of information that needed to be found by reading inbetween the lines. "

" Love the spirited piece. Read the play and did not hear the audio CD "
