Arms and the Man is one of George Bernard Shaw's most glittering comedies that takes place during the 1885 Serbo-Bulgarian War. It tells the story of a young Bulgarian woman, Raina, who encounters Bluntschli, a mercenary Swiss soldier for the Serbian army, when he bursts into her bedroom and begs her to hide him. Arms and the Man , a mixture of wit and humour, presents a satire on the conventional values about war, love, social class, and morality.
George Bernard Shaw
George Bernard Shaw was an Irish playwright, critic, and polemicist, widely regarded as one of the most significant and influential writers in the English language. He is best known for his works that challenge societal norms and conventions, particularly in terms of social justice, gender roles, politics, and morality. His sharp wit, keen insight into human nature, and groundbreaking ideas make him one of the central figures in modern theatre.
