The book is a small 81-page play by August Strindberg. Its subject is briefly about the father of the house being driven crazy by his wife. If you ask who August Strindberg is, he is one of Sweden's great and productive writers. I was curious when I read that a book by a different author had received the "August Strindberg Award", and I met the author with the book "Open Sea Edge", translated into Turkish by Behçet Necatigil. When you read the author's CV, you understand why he always stuck to certain topics (man-woman relations) (We are talking about a person who attempted suicide at the age of 7, lost his mother at the age of 13, and went through 4 marriages; such a person is either a great writer or a great antisocial person. I think it could be).
