The haunting tale of Doctor Glas takes place in Stockholm during the closing years of the 1800s. The doctor a troubled and compassionate man relates the strange story of the Reverend Gregorius and his pretty wife. Gregorius an elderly and offensive pastor has endangered her physical and mental health. She consults Doctor Glas who for the first time violates the ethics of his profession and uses a highly unorthodox method of helping her. But when the wife takes a lover and Doctor Glas becomes emotionally attached to her an intolerable situation develops. The uxorious pastor dies poisoned. The aftermath of his death and the doctors unforeseen reactions to it bring the story to a chilling horrifying close. Originally published in 1905 Doctor Glas is a novel of extraordinary immediacy and frankness. Its concerns – sexual incompatibility abortion euthanasia – together with its psychological insights make it a remarkably modern work.
