Henry Higgins is the Pygmalion figure who believes he can transform Eliza Doolittle, a cockney flower girl, into a duchess at ease in polite society. The one thing he overlooks is that his 'creation' has a mind of her own." Subjects: English drama -- 20th century. England -- Drama -- 20th century. Drama. English drama. Penguin classics.
