About This Novel
A maritime novel full of passion, adventure and conspiracy, Dr. Sanders in "On the Chinese Screen" and Captain Nichols in "The Moon and Sixpence" meet at sea, creating a tragic comedy of human nature that is full of dangers. "What do you believe?" "You really want to know? I don't believe in anything, except myself and my experience. The world is made up of me, my thoughts, and my feelings; everything else is just fantasy." The characters in the novel are all kinds of strange, they just appear, take root and grow in your heart, and gradually acquire appropriate characteristics and place themselves in specific scenes. You think about them from time to time, and sometimes you become so obsessed with them that you can't think of anything else, and then you just write them out so they don't bother you anymore. --Maugham
