More about the book

Set against the backdrop of 19th-century Copenhagen, the narrative follows Bonifacius, a theology student drawn away from his studies by the allure of art and bohemian life. His passionate relationship with the artist Eva faces challenges from his moral conflicts and societal expectations. The play delves into complex themes of art, love, morality, and religion, highlighting the tension between personal desires and societal norms. This work stands as one of Holger Drachmann's most notable contributions to drama.
