Ibsen, Henrik. Letters of Henrik Ibsen; tr. by John Nilsen Laurvik and Mary Morrison. **$2.50. Fox.
Inasmuch as a familiarity with Ibsen’s work is necessary to a full understanding of the content of his letters, this volume will appeal most strongly to Ibsen students. The letters show the mental habits and methods of the great writer; and particularly self-revealing are those written to Bjornson in which “Brand” may be followed from its inception; and others to Councillor Hegel, Ibsen’s publisher, concerning “Peer Gynt”; still others to Hans Christian Andersen, William Archer, Edmund Gosse, Grieg, and King Charles of Sweden, covering a correspondence of half a century.
