Banned Books – A Doll’s House + Common Sense

Banned Books – A Doll’s House + Common Sense brings together two groundbreaking works that reshaped modern thought, challenged social norms, and sparked cultural revolutions. This dual‑volume release pairs Henrik Ibsen’s iconic drama A Doll’s House with Thomas Paine’s fiery political manifesto Common Sense, offering listeners a powerful journey through ideas that once shook the world.

In A Doll’s House, Ibsen exposes the constraints placed on women in 19th‑century society through the story of Nora Helmer, a wife and mother who begins to question the roles imposed upon her. The play’s bold critique of marriage, gender expectations, and personal freedom made it one of the most controversial works of its time.

In Common Sense, Thomas Paine delivers a passionate argument for American independence, written in clear, direct language that ignited a political movement. His call for liberty, self‑governance, and the rejection of monarchy became one of the most influential texts of the American Revolution.

Together, these works highlight the enduring power of banned and challenged literature — stories and ideas that refuse to remain silent.

Perfect for listeners who enjoy classic literature, political philosophy, feminist history, and culturally significant works that continue to inspire debate today.
