Mrs. Warren's Profession by George Bernard Shaw, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Written in 1893 but banned from the London stage for years, George Bernard Shaw's play follows Vivie Warren, a brilliant, independent young woman, who discovers that her mother's fortune comes from running brothels across Europe. Shaw uses the shock to expose the economic forces that drove women into such work. A sharp, provocative classic.
