Reader's note

A wonderful collection of four Bernard Shaw Penguin books. Major Barbara follows Barbara Undershaft of the Salvation Army who resigns when she learns that her father, a wealthy armaments manufacturer, has donated a significant sum to the organisation. Androcles and the Lion is a modern retelling of the fable, in which Androcles is saved by a lion whom he has helped previously. Pygmalion is one of Bernard Shaw’s most popular plays; linguistics Professor Henry Higgins is convinced that he can pass off the cockney Eliza as a duchess if he teaches her to speak differently and as he moulds her manners and speech he finds himself falling for her. Saint Joan is another of Bernard Shaw’s most enduring works, it is the story of Joan of Arc from the start of her seeing visions of the saints to her trial and execution.
