This essay explores Bernard Shaw"s Heartbreak House in terms of disillusionment of nihilism, materialism and pessimism of high society people describing contemporary British culture of early twenty-century in the context of Capitalistic society drifting towards destruction. In doing so, this essay analyzes how Shavian paradox and desperate metaphor were developed to the purpose of life force through the play. It is because Heartbreak House paradoxically connotes hope and conviction for human betterment in spite of the destructiveness, daydreaming and nothingness during the war time.
Heartbreak House seems to deal with the tragic aspects of our days negatively on the surface. The opposite values, the desperate hope and the fearful destruction which are two aspects of the life force make the play powerful. Heartbreak House is illustrated as negligence, inertia, dishonesty, and stupidity of its characters. The play produces not only the social crisis of “cultured, leisured Europe before the war,” but personal crisis as well.
According to Shaw, man made the forces of darkness and death, which are the burden of Heartbreak House. In Heartbreak House, the procedure of destruction seems to be essential for the inhabitants of the house to be brought rebirth. In spite of negative attitudes in the play, Shaw envisions the change of social progress though possibly only when man changes his attitude toward life from a personal self-centered to an altruistic one. In a sense Shaw also seems to intend to say what the war really meant in terms of human improvement through Heartbreak House.
