Plays Pleasant: Arms and the Man/Candida/the Man of Destiny/You Never Can Tell (Penguin Classics)

Plays Pleasant: Arms and the Man/Candida/the Man of Destiny/You Never Can Tell (Penguin Classics)

(Paperback)-Plays Pleasant (1898) comprises four comedies intended to amuse audiences but also to provoke them. Arms and the Man , set in the Balkan mountains, satirizes the romantic view of war and military heroism. Candida presents the complicated relationship between a vicar, his wife, and her young admirer. You Never Can Tell is a light, witty look at an aging suffragette and her family. The Man of Destiny features Napoleon Bonaparte at odds with English mores.

    I don't find George Bernard Shaw as entertaining as I'm supposed to. I have no doubt that his work was very forward-thinking and funny at the time, and I know that he is an important playwright. I'm also sure that in the hands of the right director any of these plays would be fantastic. However, I felt like all of the stories in this collection contained the same gimmicks. You could tell where the play was going in the first couple scenes. I guess my favorite of them all was Candida. It had the most unexpected plotline, and I felt like it wasn't trying to be anything.
