This light comedy had me laughing all the time. It was a fun read and the characters were entertaining.
I'm a bit confused about "My Fair Lady"'s ending though.







*SPOILER*
At the end when Eliza returns to the professor, he doesn't run to her and show his happiness and instead tells her to fetch his slippers. Then it said that Eliza understood and had tears in her eyes. Does that mean that even though they love each other, they won't be together because of their social classes and/or other problems like Prof. Higgen's personality?

Great Book! By providing the reader with both plays the reader can draw his own conclusion wether he likes one or the other. THe package arrived on time as promised.

This is an amazing story. It has a great heart and humor, and you love the characters, despite their faults. Eliza and Professor Higgins are both terrific. This is definatly worth reading.

It's loverly, loverly, loverly! I couldn't stop reading it. I've seen the movie aout a gazillion times, and I have three recordings of "My Fair Lady" (The Original Broadway Cast and London Cast, both with Julie Andrews, and the movie Soundtrack), and the book is just what I needed. I could often quote the movie, and as my friend Mishi said, I'm "a perfect Eliza!", but the book's just wonderful. It's going to help me do this on stage one day . . .

The play, My Fair Lady, was a delightful comedy
