The House Where Hearts Are Broken

This collection includes 4 plays by Bernard Shaw: «Pygmalion», «Caesar and Cleopatra», «The House Where Hearts Are Broken», «Mrs. Warren's Profession» which have become classics of theatrical scenes around the world. It is included in the university curriculum of many humanities programs.

Shaw sharply raises issues of spiritual crisis and hypocrisy in society in «The House Where Hearts Are Broken»; questions of morality, women's independence, and social injustice in «Mrs. Warren's Profession»; class inequality and social prejudices in «Pygmalion»; power and the moral growth of an individual through a historical lens in «Caesar and Cleopatra». In each play, the author, through sharp humor and paradoxes, encourages a reassessment of attitudes and the search for genuine human values.
