BEST LOVED BERNARD SHAW (BEST LOVED IRISH WRITERS) (HB)

This beautiful anthology contains extracts from George Bernard Shaw’s plays, essays and personal letters. Though he started from the most unpropitious of beginnings, Shaw possessed a steely self-determination and turned the unshakeable conviction that he would become a great writer into a self-fulfilling prophecy. He is one of only two people to have won both an Academy Award and a Nobel Prize for Literature. One of the most remarkable writers of the 20th century, Shaw contributed to both political and social writings as well as creating great works of literature.
