Although his plays focus on ideas and issues, they are enlivened by fascinating characters, a brilliant command of language, and dazzling wit. &&L/P&&LPOne of Shaw's finest and most devilish comedies, &&LIMan and Superman &&L/Iportrays Don Juan as the quarry instead of the huntsman. John Tanner, upon discovering that his beautiful ward plans to marry him, flees to the Sierra Nevada mountain range, where he is captured by a group of rebels. Tanner falls asleep, and dreams the famous "Don Juan in Hell" sequence, which features a sparkling Shavian debate among Don Juan, the Devil, and a talkative statue. With its fairy-tale ending and a cast literally from hell, &&LIMan and Superman&&L/I is a hilarious cocktail of farce, Nietzschean philosophy, and Mozart's &&LIDon Giovanni&&L/I. &&LPAlso included in this volume are &&LICandida&&L/I, Shaw's first real success on the stage, &&LIMrs. Warren's Profession&&L/I, which poked fun at the Victorian attitude toward prostitution, and &&LIThe Devil's Disciple&&L/I, a play set during the American Revolution.&&L/P&&LP&&LBJohn A.

A truly great buy. This is one of the most conscientiously and carefully packaged books I've ever purchased on EBay! Truly impressive wrapping + boxing, in heavy cardboard ... it's obvious seller genuinely cares about books. Also, photo and description were exact and honest, and book looks even better in "real life" than in pixels. Price + shipping were entirely reasonable for a book of such quality. Glad I found this one.

Awesome seller! Truly cares about the condition and description of their books. You get what you see in the picture. Extremely well packaged, especially since I usually get old paperbacks sent to me in a re-used light blue and white colored bubble mailer with no other protection. Got some goodies, too. Well worth it. Will definitely purchase from again!
