Candida: Ein Mysterium in drei Akten by Bernard Shaw
"Candida: Ein Mysterium in drei Akten" by Bernard Shaw is a comedy written in 1894. A young poet falls desperately in love with Candida, wife of a famous clergyman, and attempts to rescue her from domestic life. He views her as divine and believes she deserves more than her marriage offers. Her husband assumes she needs his protection, but the reality differs dramatically. Candida must ultimately choose between two men who love
her—each offering vastly different visions of devotion. Her choice challenges Victorian assumptions about love and marriage. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
