Recenzii
'Compact but comprehensive...Students and general readers will find it both accessible and enlightening, Shaw scholars will regard it as an excellent resource, and directors of future productions of Pygmalion will wish they could hire Leonard Conolly as their dramaturg.'
'The prosicuity of shaw's drama of the fortunes of the cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle continues to coruscate.'
'Pygmalion is not just about accents or class. It is about the battle of the sexes, of control.'
'This is Shaw's most serious and politically provocative comedy, an elegant attack on a society at war with itself.'
'It's no great stretch of the imagination to discern that the play's ingenious arguments about poverty, accent, education and identity hold good for multicultural Britain today.'
