Join us on October 22d for a discussion of Ibsen's play "An Enemy of the People." When Dr. Thomas Stockmann raises the alarm about contamination of a city's spa, it sets in motion a row among a cast of prominent personages that results in Stockmann's demonization. "An Enemy of the People" might be the first literary effort to weigh the benefits of economic growth against the costs of environmental damage.
