About this ebook

In a once-great Scottish town, a massive redevelopment project promises to bring money, jobs and new prospects to its forgotten population. However, when Dr Kirsten Stockmann discovers a dangerous secret, she knows she must bring the truth to light – no matter the cost.

A provocative and timely drama about corruption, politics and the media, The Enemy is a uniquely Scottish take on Henrik Ibsen's timeless work An Enemy of the People, written by award-winning playwright Kieran Hurley.

This edition was published to coincide with its National Theatre of Scotland production in October 2021.
