George Bernard Shaw’s Arms and the Man

Often considered one of George Bernard Shaw’s best comedies, Arms and the Man, centers around the life of a young woman, Raina Pektoff, who uses her heart more than her head. When her soldier fiance is away, her romantic ideals go out the same window through which an enemy soldier enters her room. Is all fair in love and war? Or will human nature expose the hypocrisies of battle?
