Meer over het boek

Set in northeast London during October, the play explores the life of Candida, the wife of the renowned Reverend James Mavor Morell, a Christian Socialist. While Morell enjoys popularity within the Church of England, it is Candida's influence that significantly contributes to his success. The narrative unfolds as she returns home from a trip with Eugene Marchbanks, a young poet who believes he can liberate her from her seemingly mundane domestic existence, prompting a clash of ideals and emotions.
