Friedman, A: Ibsen Apocalypse Vegard Vinge and Ida Muller's Six-Hundred-Year Mission to Raise the Ghosts of Modernity

"Ibsen Apocalypse offers a first-in-English look at an epochally crucial artistic team. Friedman's writing is vivid and engaging, and his knowledge of the artworks is exceptional." -Kimberly Jannarone, Yale University

"Like the saga it elucidates, Friedman's book is an exceptional celebration and critique of the foundations of modernity, of theatricality, and of our lasting contemporary Ibsen. Vivid first-person accounts reanimate one of the most radical endeavors of the twenty-first-century theater and render a complex of theoretical underpinnings into legible and resonant terms." -Daniel Sack, University of Massachusetts Amherst
