In this book, Dr. Ekman examines Strindberg's four plays of 1907:
Thunder in the Air, The Burned Site, The Ghost Sonata, and The
Pelican, the works which have gained most resonance
internationally. For the first time, these works are studied in
relation to Strindberg's lifelong obsession with the five senses
and their function in stage plays, both symbolic and dramatic. The
fact that impressions from a stage can only be seen and heard led
Strindberg to disregard the senses in favour of the insights of
wisdom and inner vision; and it is from this position that the
Chamber Plays were written. Examined from this perspective, much
that seems obscure in these plays and their new style of drama is
revealed in an original and clarifying light.
