Wits and Bits - By: Mohsin Ahmed, 20 Jun 2004
This play of Shaw is about marriage & courting
and its relation to man & nature. Very witty,
but long. It clearly shows Shaw was way ahead of
his time, & well versed in scientific theories
like the 'selfish gene' of 21st century.

I had a hard time getting the audio version of the
play, it is pity BBC books go out of print & not
available widely. The audio version brought out
the subtle humour in the driver's accent & Mendoza's
poems, which may otherwise lost when reading from a book.

You will also like "Caesar & Cleopatra" (Caedmon) and
"The Doctor's Dilemma" (CBC), (Heartbreak House was boring).
