About this audiobook
ARDIS Audio Studio brings to your attention the famous play by George Bernard Shaw "Pygmalion", read in the original language.
George Bernard Shaw is a brilliant playwright, a classic of English literature of the late XIX - early XX century, winner of the Nobel Prize in 1925.
"Pygmalion" is a sparkling comedy, the essence of which is a bet made between Mr. Higgins, a professor of phonetics, and Colonel Pickering. Higgins claims that he will be able, thanks to his knowledge and pedagogical skills, to turn a simple flower girl Eliza Doolittle into a socialite. The experiment begins. But his course is disrupted by the human relationship that suddenly ensues between two men and one girl. Eliza Doolittle, who belongs to the lower classes of society, is better in mental qualities and way of thinking than her teacher, an outwardly intelligent, aristocratic professor of phonetics. In this strange contradiction, at first glance, lies the sharpness and satire of Shaw's play, its success with many generations of viewers and readers. The finale of the comedy remains open – what will happen next with the little flower girl, who coped so well with the role of a noble lady?
