Summary "Inferno" by August Strindberg is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book intricately explores themes of obsession, existential anguish, and the conflict between the pursuit of knowledge and personal relationships, primarily through the experiences of the protagonist, who grapples with his intellectual ambitions while facing the repercussions of his choices on his marriage and personal life. At the start of the narrative, the protagonist reflects on his tumultuous marriage as he bids his wife farewell to care for their ailing child. This departure sets the tone for his subsequent isolation and descent into obsessive scientific experimentation, which he believes could lead to monumental discoveries. His solitude is compounded by physical suffering from his chemical pursuits, as well as the mental turmoil arising from his separation from his family. Throughout the beginning, Strindberg captures the protagonist's inner conflict and desperation as he navigates his passions for science over love, ultimately laying the groundwork for a profound exploration of the human condition.
