On Midsummer's Eve, Miss Julie, a young noblewoman enters into an illicit affair with her father's valet, Jean. Worldly and cultured, Jean by turns spurns and encourages Miss Julie's flirtation, eventually initiating a relationship with disastrous consequences for her. August Strindberg's naturalistic play Miss Julie (Miss Julia) was the premiere production of the Scandinavian Naturalistic Theatre.
While initially censored for content, the play has since become one of the most successful naturalistic dramas written, and has been performed on stages around the world each year since its premiere in 1888. Miss Julie has also been adapted numerous times for film, most recently by Liv Ullman with Jessica Chastain and Colin Farrell in the roles of Miss Julie and Jean. HarperPerennial Classics brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms.

Biographie d'August Strindberg

August Stringberg was a novelist, poet, playwright, and painter, and is considered to be the father of modern Swedish literature, publishing the country's first modern novel, The Red Room, in 1879. Strindberg was prolific, penning more than 90 works-including plays, novels, and non-fiction-over the course of his career. However, he is best-known for his dramatic works, many of which have been met with international acclaim, including The Father, Miss Julie (Miss Julia), Creditors, and A Dream Play.
Strindberg died in 1912 following a short illness, but his work continues to inspire later playwrights and authors including Tennessee Williams, Maxim Gorky, and Eugene O'Neill.
