Beskrivelse

One of the most popular writers of Interwar Britain, W. Somerset Maugham earned vast sums as a playwright, novelist and master of the short story. His work is characterised by a clear unadorned style, cosmopolitan settings and a perceptive understanding of human nature. The novel 'Of Human Bondage' (1915) is generally regarded as his masterpiece, offering a semi-autobiographical account of a young medical student's painful progress toward maturity.
