The selected correspondence of Bernard Shaw relating to the play Widowers' Houses contains 160 letters and entries written between 1885 and 1933. This publication from a revised edition Plays: Pleasant and Unpleasant. The First Volume, Contain-ing the Three Unpleasant Plays (Widowers' Houses, The Philandered, & Mrs Warren's Profession) published by Constable and Company Ltd, London 1919 is a handmade reproduction from the original edition, and remains as true to the original work as possible. The original edition was processed manually by means of a classic editing which ensures the quality of publications and the unrestricted enjoyment of reading. Here are some inspirational book quotes from Bernard Shaw: 'I do not hesitate to say that many of my critics have been completely beaten by the play simply because they are ignorant of society.' 'Now, the didactic object of my play is to produce conviction of sin, to make the Pharisee who repudiates Sartorius as either a Harpagon [a character of a comedy The Miser by the French playwright Molière] or a diseased dream of mine, and thanks God that such persons do not represent his class, recognize that Sartorius is his own photograph.' 'These gentlemen believe that, according to me, what is wrong with society is that the rich, who are all wicked, oppress the poor, who are all virtuous. I will not waste the space of The Star by dealing with such a misconception further than to curtly but goodhumoredly inform those who entertain it that they are fools.' 'Unfortunately I have no power of producing beauty: my genius is the genius of intellect, and my farce its derisive brutality.'
