a doll's house - ibsen

J2 says i will enjoy her reading assignment, and she's right.

in summary:
1. an insufferable self-righteous prig of a male chauvinist husband,
2. a smart loving woman, stronger than she herself knows,
3. her tired older and wiser friend,
4. a villain redeemed by love, and
5. one superfluous foil.

my questions:
1. why the foil? the story runs as well without him.
2. do you get congenital syphilis from the father?
3. is congenital syphilis terminal?
otherwise, a thumping good play with a roaring good ending. you rock girl!
