Eliot discussing Shaw's Saint Joan after its premiere in London in 1924 wrote that although Saint Joan was not the masterpiece that some claimed it to be the play "seems to illustrate Mr. Shaw's mind more clearly than anything he has written before." Shaw wrote in the preface to the published text "There are no villains in the piece. Crime like disease is not interesting: it is something to be done away with by general consent and that is all there is about it. It is what men do at their best with good intentions and what normal men and women find that they must and will do in spite of their intentions that really concern us." Dodd, Mead & Company hardcover
