Index of the Project Gutenberg Works of August Strindberg

A sweeping compilation brings together the breadth of one of Sweden’s most restless writers, gathering early historical sketches, short fiction, autobiographical essays, and a selection of his provocative dramas. The collection opens with vivid miniature histories that blend myth and fact, then moves through the biting social satire of a young journalist navigating Stockholm’s bohemian circles and the sharp domestic confrontations that define his later plays.

Listeners will encounter a startling variety of voices: the restless narrator of “The Red Room” thrust into a chaotic publishing world, the jagged dialogue of “Married” that lays bare the power struggles of a couple, and the philosophical wanderings of “Zones of the Spirit,” where the author muses on faith, science, and the human psyche. Together, these works offer a rich portrait of a writer constantly probing the limits of society, art, and his own consciousness.
