Reading Shaw is always a delight. His prose is filled with wit and wonder - even when you may disagree with his philosophy. The characters come alive on the page and even when they are representative types they seem real and distinct. My favorite in this collection is Caesar and Cleopatra, which compares favorably with Shakespeare's "Antony and Cleopatra". Shaw's Cleopatra as ingenue is refreshing. Of course, the popular choice in this collection is Pygmalion which was popularized by Lerner and Loewe as "My Fair Lady". ( )
