Mrs. Warren's Profession: A Play In Four Act (1905) - Hardcover

Mrs. Warren's Profession is a play written by George Bernard Shaw in 1905. The play is divided into four acts and tells the story of a young woman named Vivie Warren, who discovers that her mother, Mrs. Warren, made her fortune through prostitution. The play explores themes of morality, gender roles, and social class, as Vivie struggles to come to terms with her mother's past and her own future. The play is known for its controversial subject matter and was initially banned in England for its frank discussion of prostitution. However, it has since become a classic of modern drama and is widely performed today. Shaw's witty and incisive writing style is on full display in this play, and his exploration of complex social issues continues to resonate with audiences over a century later.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
