In Creditors (1888), the play centers on a love triangle involving a successful artist, his wife, and her former lover. The artist is consumed by jealousy and suspicion as he uncovers the truth about the past relationship between his wife and the other man. The drama explores themes of manipulation, revenge, and the destructive power of jealousy. Strindberg masterfully dissects the psychological warfare between the characters, revealing the emotional fragility and power struggles within intimate relationships. The play examines how guilt, betrayal, and obsession can consume individuals, leading to their emotional and psychological unraveling.Pariah (1899) is a shorter, more symbolic play that explores the themes of social alienation and personal isolation. The protagonist, a woman known as the Pariah, is rejected by society due to her past actions, but she is also estranged from her own emotions and desires. The play reflects Strindberg's interest in the complexity of human identity, particularly the internal conflict between personal desires and societal expectations. Through the character's journey, Strindberg explores the themes of isolation, guilt, and the desire for redemption.
