How He Lied to Her Husband by Bernard Shaw
QR code
"How He Lied to Her Husband" by Bernard Shaw is a one-act comedy play written in 1904. Created in just four days as a response to the success of his earlier work "Candida," this satirical farce follows a tangled situation involving a poet, his muse, and her husband. When compromising love poems go missing, panic ensues—but the confrontation takes an unexpected turn that subverts romantic assumptions. Shaw transforms a hackneyed theatrical framework
into sharp commentary on marriage, vanity, and melodramatic conventions. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
