Description

About the book: "Man and Superman," a four-act drama penned in 1903, emerged as Bernard Shaw's response to queries about why he hadn't tackled the Don Juan theme in his plays. It rightfully holds its place as Shaw's magnum opus. The story revolves around John Tanner, a young man with progressive ideas, navigating a world of conventional conformity. The central theme explores the futility of modern ideas and progressive thinking when confronted by the social norms of contemporary society. Shaw uses the character of Ann, a seemingly naive young woman, to illustrate his belief that women often drive men to marry them, contrary to traditional gender roles.
