How He Lied To Her Husband is a one-act play written by George Bernard Shaw. The play revolves around the love triangle between Aurora, her husband Teddy, and her lover Henry. Aurora has been exchanging love letters with Henry, but when Teddy discovers them, he challenges Henry to a duel. However, Henry manages to convince Teddy that the letters were merely a literary exercise and that he has no romantic interest in Aurora. The play explores themes of love, deception, and the power of language. Through witty and satirical dialogue, Shaw exposes the hypocrisy and absurdity of social conventions and the consequences of dishonesty.Now if you only knew the least little thing about the world, Henry, you'd know that in a large family, though the sisters quarrel with one another like mad all the time, yet let one of the brothers marry, and they all turn on their unfortunate sister-in-law and devote the rest of their lives with perfect unanimity to persuading him that his wife is unworthy of him. They can do it to her very face without her knowing it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
