Book excerpt: This eBook edition of "LOVE AMONG THE ARTISTS" has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Love Among the Artists was published in the United States in 1900 and in England in 1914, but it was written in 1881. In the ambiance of chit-chat and frivolity among members of Victorian polite society a youthful Shaw describes his views on the arts, romantic love and the practicalities of matrimony. Dilettantes, he thinks, can love and settle down to marriage, but artists with real genius are too consumed by their work to fit that pattern. The dominant figure in the novel is Owen Jack, a musical genius, somewhat mad and quite bereft of social graces. From an abysmal beginning he rises to great fame and is lionized by socialites despite his unremitting crudity. George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950) was an Irish playwright, essayist, novelist and short story writer and wrote more than 60 plays. He is the only person to have been awarded both a Nobel Prize in Literature (1925) and an Academy Award (1938). Excerpt: "It is certainly a magnificent piece of work, Herbert," said the old gentleman. "To you, as an artist, it must be a treat indeed. I don't know enough about art to appreciate it properly. Bless us! And are all those knobs made of precious stones?" "More or less precious: yes, I believe so, Mr. Sutherland," said Herbert, smiling." (Love Among The Artists, Book I)

Book excerpt: Review from The Book Buyer, Volume 22: Social satire is in abeyance in Mr. George Bernard Shaw's Love Among the Artists, a new edition of which makes its appearance some twenty years after its first publication, with a whimsical introduction by the author. The sneer of the Bohemian for the Philistine is the Leit motiv of this amusing tale without much plot, but it is fairly matched by impatience of the dilettante, whom we have always with us, jabbering of inspiration and aims, chattering the jargon without realizing its expression in work, and turning out impossible daubs. Then there are a Polish pianiste, an actress, and a Welsh composer, a kind of Hans von Bulow in unpardonable rudeness, and lack of manners; also a good-natured bounder, connected with a motor company, who, in making a proposal of marriage, states his income, computed with a "percentage off the minimum," and who knows that the untamed composer's heroic symphony is good music because it reminds him of the Pacific railroad. In "Cashel Byron's Profession," Mr. Shaw gave us a wonderful account of a prizefight; in "Love Among the Artists," he describes the making of an actress with rare skill; and his report of the rehearsal of the composer's first composition by a musical society in London is as admirable. The " love" of the title has no perceptible influence upon its artists. The tale has a beginning, but no logical ending. After entertaining its readers through nearly 337 pages, it stops.

Book excerpt: With his inimitable wit and sparkle, George Bernard Shaw brings us the character of Owen Jack, a salty non-conformist composer said to have been suggested by Beethoven. The relations between Jack and the other wayward bohemians of the story with the more conventional socialites around them offers shrewd insight into the nature of the artistic temperament, with its need for a kind of commitment that overrides the everyday claims of the heart. A novel which anticipated Shaw's first plays by more than ten years, Love among the artists shows him already mocking the respectable morality of the Victorian society around him.
