Candida is a classic statement on love and a seemingly harmless triangle. George Bernard Shaw was born in Dublin in 1856. Before becoming a playwright he wrote music and literary criticism. Shaw used his writing to attack social problems such as education, marriage, religion, government, health care, and class privilege. Shaw was particularly conscious of the exploitation of the working class. Candida is a play in three acts first published in 1898. The Rev Morrell, his peerless wife Candida, and their mutual young poet friend Marchbanks are involved in a harmless triangle which Marchbanks feels compelled to reveal.
