The Characters and Plot!!

About the characters first comes Nora, Nora has a childish characteristic she always squandering for macaroons. Nora husband Torvald tends to ask her not to purchase the macaroons and tends to lie about having them. Also she is kind of conceded for example in the play said "I could have gotten it from some admirer or other. After all, a girl with my ravishing appeal..." Torvald is a kind man but to his wife Nora he tends to get off hand and in result causes Nora to act childish. Torvald talks down to Nora for example “My little skylark”, “My little singing bird". Torvald view himself as intellectual superior of the household.

Nora wanted to save her husband life by borrowing money from Krogstad but her father had to sign the papers but Nora signed it her self and soon Krogstad figured out that she forged it . Nora ways trying to save her husband and now she is getting black mails for it. What do you feel about this situation??
