Description
Read Books The Black Girl in Search of God and Some Lesser Tales by George Bernard Shaw
This volume contains George Bernard Shaws collection of short stories entitled The Black Girl in Search of God and Some Lesser Tales. It was first published in 1934. The Black Girl In Search Of God is a short story that follows a young girl who is newly converted to Christianity and who embarks on a literal search for God. On her way she comes into contact with a number of religious figures each trying to convert her to their own faiths. This wonderfully sardonic allegory highlights Shaws unorthodox ideas on faith and race and was highly controversial when first published. George Bernard Shaw (1856 1950) was an Irish playwright who cofounded of the London School of Economics.
