Man and Superman - Hardcover

by George Bernard Shaw (Author)

This four act drama, Man and Superman, is Shaws response to the questions as to why had he never written anything along the Don Juan theme. It is generally performed as a light comedy, but is meant to have much deeper meaning. The plot centers on John Tanner, a confirmed bachelor despite the pursuits of Ann Whitefield and her persistent efforts to make him marry her. Ann represents Shaws view that in every culture Women are the driving force in marriage.
