Mrs. Warren’s Profession
by George Bernard Shaw
“In a world of rigid virtue, the truth is the ultimate scandal.”
When a brilliant young woman uncovers the shocking trade that funded her education, she must choose between her cold principles and her mother’s uncomfortable truth. George Bernard Shaw’s once-banned masterpiece remains a searing, witty indictment of social hypocrisy and the economic chains that bind women.
