More about the book

Focusing on Arvid Falk, a civil servant seeking purpose through writing, the narrative unfolds in the vibrant "Red Room," where artists and philosophers explore their truths. Reflecting Strindberg's own life, the novel, published in 1879, initially faced harsh criticism in Sweden but gained recognition throughout Scandinavia. Its journey includes a notable English translation in 1913, allowing a broader audience to engage with its themes of artistic aspiration and existential inquiry.
