Manders Monologue from Ghosts

From Ghosts by Henrik Ibsen

male · contemplative · 46 sec

He has so much on his mind, that man--so many things to fight against. Thank God, he is now striving to lead a decent life, I hear. (MRS. ALVING: Indeed! Who says so?) He himself assures me of it. And he is certainly a capital workman. (MRS. ALVING: Oh, yes; so long as he's sober--) Ah, that melancholy weakness! But, he is often driven to it by his injured leg, he says. Last time he was in town I was really touched by him. He came and thanked me so warmly for having got him work here, so that he might be near Regina.
