Capa do George Bernard Shaw: Androcles and The Lion (ePUB)

Famed playwright George Bernard Shaw’s quirky version of the ancient Androcles fable deftly combines elements of satire and humor along with a surprisingly philosophically complex view of Christianity and religious belief systems in general. This playful take on the issues of persecution and martyrdom is as timely today as it was when initially published a century ago.
