Shaw's witty classic in which topics and institutions such as predatory women, motherhood, politics, moral progress, American millionaires, the rise of labor and man's coming dependence on the automobile are viewed as Shaw saw them. John Tanner, an opinionated, progressive and independent male, tries frantically to escape wily Ann Whitefield, whose guardian he is. But Tanner finally submits to the inevitability of Shaw's "Life Force" personified in Ann.
Contains the third act DON JUAN IN HELL sequence.
