Arms and the Man | Livres

Arms and the Man | Livres is George Bernard Shaw's anti-war comedy. Set during the 1885 Serbo-Bulgarian War, the play satirizes romantic notions of war and heroism when a pragmatic Swiss mercenary takes refuge in the bedroom of a young Bulgarian woman. Witty, subversive, and ahead of its time.
