by Johan August Strindberg
The translation by PAUL BRITTEN AUSTIN adapted by WILLIAM GLEN-DOEPEL
Produced by RAYNER HEPPENSTALL
Second broadcast
From medieval times, the female pelican has legendarily sacrificed herself to feed her young. The mother in Opus 4 of Strindberg's chamber plays has starved her children, both of food and even of merely physical warmth, so that only destruction of the house by fire can symbolically redeem their lives.
