Bernard Shaw's dramatic genius is on full display in this compelling collection, presenting two of his most celebrated plays. "Saint Joan" chronicles the extraordinary life and trial of Joan of Arc, a peasant girl who led the French army to victory before facing charges of heresy, offering a profound examination of faith, power, and conviction. "The Apple Cart," a satirical comedy, skewers political systems and the nature of leadership through the imagined conflict between a king and his cabinet over royal prerogatives. Both works showcase Shaw's sharp wit and intellectual prowess, engaging readers with timeless themes of societal critique and individual struggle.
