Not entirely on-topic, but have you ever read or seen James Barrie’s The Twelve-Pound Look? I bring it up because it’s always seemed to me to dovetail with A Doll’s House and Nora secretly doing secretarial work from home to help pay off her debt. A successful man is about to receive a knighthood, and the typist his wife hires to do the invitations turns out to be his first wife whose supposed elopement years ago was, she finally admits after stalling to spare his feelings, a solitary escape – she worded her farewell note to imply adultery because she figured it was only fair to give him his freedom when she was obtaining hers.
