The Irrational Knot

By Bernard Shaw

"The Irrational Knot," by George Bernard Shaw, explores the complexities of marriage and social class in Victorian England. Subtitled "Being the Second Novel of His Nonage," this satirical work delves into the societal expectations and often-contradictory gender roles that defined relationships of the era. Shaw's keen eye and sharp wit dissect the "irrational knot" of matrimony, examining its impact on individuals and the wider social fabric. A compelling blend of romantic novel and social commentary, the book offers a critical, yet engaging, perspective on family dynamics, divorce, and separation. A fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, this meticulously prepared print edition allows readers to rediscover Shaw's timeless observations on love, society, and the enduring challenges of human connection.
