Act II
Act two of a Doll’s house showed us many things that were not expected. Nora is very, very smart. I thought that she was really dumb in the first act but found that she is very sneaky. No one would ever guess that she borrowed money without her husband knowing and she flirts with Dr. Rank. I would expect to be Krogstad because she could seduce him and then he would never tell her husband but Nora wants to borrow more money, than the circle of deceit will never end. While Dr. Rank is in excruciating pain because of his illness and he’s bankrupt he tells Nora of how he loves her .Why does he love her? When the lamp comes in Nora says “You’re a fine one Dr. Rank! Aren’t you ashamed of yourself, now that the lamps come in! ” This story is becoming intolerable to read.

I'm on the same page with you about Nora not being as stupid as everyone thinks. She really is a smart lady but shes just bad with actually covering up everything, not that she should have in the first place.
I commented on Amaya's, Joanner's and Alisha's blogs.
It's true that Nora is very smart and sneaky.And I think that she shoud've let Helmer read the letter sooner instead of hiding and face whatever reaction comes.
Krogstad is evil! How could he continue with his blackmailing even after Nora said she'd KILL herself?
I think Krogstad might change his mind after talking to mrs.linde
