Genre: Fiction > General Fiction/Classics
Of Human Bondage (Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics)
by W. Somerset Maugham, Robert Calder (Introduction)
An obsessive love affair provides the pivot of this powerful evocation of a young man's progress to maturity in the years before the First World War.
The Magician (Penguin Classics)
by W. Somerset Maugham, Robert Calder (Introduction)
Maugham’s enchanting tale of secrets and fatal attraction
The Magician is one of Somerset Maugham’s most complex and perceptive novels. Running through it is the theme of evil, deftly woven into a story as memorable for its action as for its astonishingly vivid characters. In fin de siecle Paris, Arthur and Margaret are engaged to be married. Everyone approves and everyone seems to be enjoying themselves—until the sinister and repulsive Oliver Haddo appears.
Mrs Craddock (Penguin Classics)
by W. Somerset Maugham, Robert Calder (Introduction)
Edward Craddock is a thoroughly good man. He may lack his wife Bertha’s education, but he is unfailingly good-humored, handsome, placid, and popular. It is hardly surprising that Bertha adores him. But expending all one’s passion, all one’s spirit, on a man who is so undemonstrative, so unimaginative, can be very trying, as Bertha soon discovers.
In this penetrating study of an unequal marriage, W. Somerset Maugham explores the nature of love and happiness and finds that the two rarely coincide.
The Moon and Sixpence (Penguin Classics)
by W. Somerset Maugham, Robert Calder (Introduction)
One of the novels that galvanized W. Somerset Maugham’s reputation as a literary master
The Moon and Sixpence follows the life of one Charles Strickland, a bourgeois city gent whose dull exterior conceals the soul of a genius. Compulsive and impassioned, he abandons his home, wife, and children to devote himself slavishly to painting. In a tiny studio in Paris, he fills canvas after canvas, refusing to sell or even exhibit his work. Beset by poverty, sickness, and his own intransigent, unscrupulous nature, he drifts to Tahiti, where, even after being blinded by leprosy, he produces some of his most extraordinary works of art. Inspired by the life of Paul Gauguin, The Moon and Sixpence is an unforgettable study of a man possessed by the need to create—regardless of the cost to himself and to others.
