![]() ![]() Unfortunately, despite the time he spent writing them, his novels were dismal failures, widely rejected by publishers. Shaw struggled financially, and his mother essentially supported him while he spent time in the British Museum reading room, working on his first novels. In 1872, Shaw's mother left her husband and took Shaw's two sisters to London, and four years later Shaw followed (his younger sister had died in the meantime), deciding to become a writer. The third child, Shaw's early education took the form of tutoring sessions provided by his clerical uncle.Įarly on, Shaw explored the worlds of the arts (music, art, literature) under his mother's guidance and through regular visits to the National Gallery of Ireland. Playwright George Bernard Shaw was born in Dublin, Ireland, on July 26, 1856. During his lifetime, he wrote more than 60 plays and won many other awards, among them the Nobel Prize. His play Pygmalion was later made into a film twice, and the screenplay he wrote for the first version of it won an Oscar. In 1895, he became a theater critic for the Saturday Review and began writing plays of his own. In 1876 he moved to London, where he wrote regularly but struggled financially. ![]() George Bernard Shaw was born July 26, 1856, in Dublin, Ireland. ![]() ![]() Perhaps the most important bit of foreshadowing work done with the original cast of characters has to do with the birth of Ben Solo and the creation of the circumstances that would eventually allow him to be seduced to the dark side of the Force and become Kylo Ren. ![]() ![]() And Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) has already disappeared from the face of the galaxy, going off on secret missions in order to prepare for the eventual reinstitution of the Jedi Order, making him something of a mythological figure well before the events of The Force Awakens. Lando Calrissian (Billy Dee Williams) returns home to Cloud City, only to find it in the throes of a civil war, as citizens start to take up arms to overturn Imperial Governor Adelhard’s new lockdown (yes, he helps them prevail). Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew) leaves the smuggler’s side in order to track down his long-lost and -imprisoned family – which he does, starting with his son, Lumpawaroo. Han revokes his military commission in order to go off on his own to try and liberate the Wookiees’ homeworld of Kashyyyk (something which the Republic won’t commit any resources to, unfortunately, given its low strategic importance), meaning he faces an uncertain future once the deed is done. ![]() ![]() Leia gets pregnant a few months later, and at the very end of the last book, baby Ben is born.
