Plays by August Strindberg: Creditors. Pariah. by August Strindberg
"Plays by August Strindberg: Creditors. Pariah." by August Strindberg is a collection of one-act plays written in 1888–1889. In "Pariah," two men trapped in a farmhouse during a storm engage in a psychological battle over guilt and atonement. Both harbor criminal pasts—one a murderer who escaped justice, the other a forger who served time. As their stories unfold, the tension escalates into a dangerous contest of wills, where mental prowess proves mightier
than physical threat in this Darwinian struggle for survival. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
