About this book
In a transformative era of social change, George Bernard Shaw’s play "Candida" delves into the intricate dynamics of love and ideology. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century London, the narrative revolves around James Mavor Morell, a Christian socialist priest, who grapples with the expectations of his wife, Candida, and the challenges posed by a passionate young poet. Shaw's exploration of themes such as gender roles and the nature of authority reveals the tension between personal desire and societal duty. Ideal for students and civic activists, "Candida" offers a thought-provoking examination of relationships and social responsibility, making it a timeless piece that resonates with contemporary discussions on equality and empowerment.
