Overview

Misalliance, by Shaw, George Bernard - Akasha Classics, AkashaPublishing.Com - Misalliance takes place entirely on a single Saturday afternoon in May 1909 in the conservatory of a large country house in Hindhead, Surrey in Victorian era England. Shaw subtitled his play A Debate in One Sitting. Misalliance delivers a cavalcade of ideas, wrapped around a full portion of his wit. Indeed, the inner strength of Misalliance is Shaw's piercing pen. It is a continuation of some of the ideas on marriage that he expressed in 1908 in his play, Getting Married. It was also a continuation of some of his other ideas on Socialism, physical fitness, the Life Force, and "The New Woman": i.e. women intent on escaping Victorian standards of helplessness, passivity, stuffy propriety, and non-involvement in politics or general affairs.
