When We Dead Awaken
by Henrik Ibsen
"[...] MAIA. What? PROFESSOR RUBEK. The silence? MAIA. Yes, indeed I can. PROFESSOR RUBEK. Well, perhaps you are right, mein Kind. One can really hear the silence. MAIA. Heaven knows you can-when it's so absolutely overpowering as it is here- PROFESSOR RUBEK. Here at the Baths, you mean? MAIA. Wherever you go at home here, it seems to me. Of course there was noise and bustle enough in the town. But I don't know how it is-even the noise and bustle seemed to have something dead about it. PROFESSOR RUBEK. [With a searching glance.] You don't seem particularly glad to be at home again, Maia?[...]".

Henrik Ibsen was a major 19th-century Norwegian playwright, theatre director, and poet. He is often referred to as "the god father" of modern drama and is one of the founders of Modernism in the theatre.[1] His plays were considered scandalous to many of his era, when Victorian values of family life and propriety largely held sway in Europe. Ibsen's work examined the realities that lay behind many facades, possessing a revelatory nature that was disquieting to many contemporaries. It utilized a critical eye and free inquiry into the conditions of life and issues of morality. Ibsen is often ranked as one of the truly great playwrights in the European tradition, alongside Shakespeare. <cite>— [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henrik_Ibsen)</cite>
