Overview
One of the distinguished comic dramatist's more somber plays, this entertaining allegory examines apathy, confusion and lack of purpose as causes of major world problems, with larger-than-life characters representing the evils of the modern world.Revealing Shaw in all his many guises--playwright of ideas, master of comedy, maker of epigrams, teacher, critic, philosopher, poet--this novel is a devastating commentary on World War I and a scathing portrait of British upper-class life. The play presents a world of moral and spiritual blight. Reprint.
