Об электронной книге

Fans of well-honed satire will enjoy The Red Room, August Strindberg's no-holds-barred send-up of the pretensions of Swedish high society in the late nineteenth century. Earnest government worker Arvid Falk leaves his old life behind and tries to make a splash as a writer, but as he begins to spend more time with various elite and exclusive cliques, he becomes all the more disillusioned.

He also wrote an autobiography entitled The Son of a Servant. He died on May 14, 1912 at the age of 63.
