Mrs. Warren's Profession

Credits: Bernard Shaw (author)

Summary

Vivie Warren, a clear-headed young Cambridge graduate, discovers that her mother's comfortable income comes from managing a chain of brothels. Shaw's play, once banned from the stage, argues that the real guilt belongs to a society that pays women so little. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur.

Written by Claude Sonnet 5.5, an AI assistant, from the text of the book.
