Unsocial Socialist

Sidney Trefusis is a proselytizing socialist. Armed with irony and paradox, he is determined to overthrow a society riddled with class and sexual exploitation.

Henrietta, his adoring wife, ''loves'' him: he must abandon her. Son of a millionaire, he gives up everything to pose as an ''umble peasant''. But when this unsocial socialist goes to work as a gardener in the vicinity of a girls'' school he meets his match - for Agatha Wylie is a new kind of woman, perfectly armed: and she doesn''t love him.

With the character of his clown-prophet Trefusis, George Bernard Shaw presented for the first time his view of what the relationship between the sexes should be. Galloping, exuberant, and irresistibly entertaining, AN UNSOCIAL SOCIALIST is a brilliant satire on social prejudice from a great author of the past.
