The Master Builder by Henrik Ibsen, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. First performed in 1893, Henrik Ibsen's late play centres on Halvard Solness, an ageing master builder who has reached the top of his profession but lives in fear of being overtaken by the young. When the spirited Hilde Wangel arrives at his door to claim a promise he once made her, she pushes him toward a final, dizzying climb. One of Ibsen's most haunting dramas.
About this leather-bound edition
Our binders work each cover by hand: genuine leather is fitted over firm boards, the spine is lettered in gold-tone foil and finished with traditional decorative detail. Every copy carries the small natural variations that come with real leather and handcraft.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
