Miss Tesman Monologue from Hedda Gabler

From Hedda Gabler by Henrik Ibsen

female · dramatic · 45 sec

And the people who opposed you--who wanted to bar the way for you-- now you have them at your feet. They have fallen, George. Your most dangerous rival--his fall was the worst.--And now he has to lie on the bed he has made for himself--poor misguided creature. (TESMAN: Have you heard anything of Eilert? Since I went away, I mean.) Only that he is said to have published a new book. (TESMAN: What! Eilert Lovborg! Recently--eh?) Yes, so they say. Heaven knows whether it can be worth anything! Ah, when your new book appears--that will be another story, George! What is it to be about?
