[edit] Where Her Heart Is?
I question whether Marchbanks is really where Candida's heart is. When I read the play, it seemed more to indicate that Candida does love Marchbanks, but not in that way, and that she chose a method of showing him that he could not possibly have her. I didn't get any indication that, if indeed her husband did not "need" her in the way she says he does, she would cheerfully leave him for Marchbanks. Is there strong indication of either possibility being a better reading?
Also, I don't know enough about reading the play to say it well in the article, but could someone point out the idea that Marchbanks might be better off unmarried? The play does seem to indicate that, and I have read it in one review.
[edit] plot description all wrong
the plot on this page is alllllll wrong. someone needs to fix it otherwise we risk misinforming readers.
