Doctor Glas

Hjalmar Söderberg

"Doctor Glas" explores the themes of obsession and morality in riveting detail. The novel, which caused controversy upon its 1905 publication, paints a vivid picture of turn-of-the-century Stockholm and delves into the psyche of a lonely and introspective doctor. When the beautiful wife of an odious local minister seeks his help with her husband's sexual advances, Doctor Glas contemplates committing murder. This enduring masterpiece grapples with a chilling moral quandary that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
