Exclusive to Penguin Classics: the definitive text of the play that jumpstarted Shaws career as a dramatist-part of the official Bernard Shaw LibraryA Penguin ClassicThe Reverend Morell, a socialist preacher, brings a penniless young poet, Eugene Marchbanks, into his home, which is dominated by his fascinating wife, Candida. With its single stage setting and small cast of six characters, Shaws play is deceptively simple. Centered on a romantic triangle and parodying courtly love and the domestic drama of Ibsen, Candida also abounds with classical allusions, the fervor of a religious revival, and poetic inspiration and aspirations.This is the definitive text prepared under the editorial supervision of Dan H. Laurence. The volume includes Shaws preface of 1898.
