Penguin, Harmondsworth, Middlesex, 1990. Reprint. Softcover. Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. Illustrator: Photographic. VIII, 486 pages, including biographical note and acknowledgements, and index, and 32 pages of black-and-white photographs. As the opening volume of this masterly biography makes clear, Shaw's invention of this monumental figure was a paradoxical method of concealment and his way of coming to terms with the world that had abandoned him in childhood. The Mephistophelean Irishman brought to the creation of "GBS" the same vitality and delight that he devoted to his plays and to his innumerable causes, from the rights of women to the promotion of "hygienic" dress. -- front fold over blurb. slight fading of the spine section of the paperback binding, no other damage to describe.
