Consider the time period it was written in. In the late 19th century, it was extremely bold and daring to portray a woman leaving her husband, regardless of the circumstances. Women simply didn't do that. They were "kept", and once married, usually had to endure whatever came with that marriage. For Nora to have left was groundbreaking (especially when written by a man)
