About This Novel
"The Shackles of Life" is one of the most important masterpieces of the famous British writer and "story master" Maugham, and also his most famous autobiographical novel. The protagonist of the novel, Philip Carey, lost both his parents when he was young. Unfortunately, he was also born with a disability. He spent his childhood in an indifferent and unfamiliar environment, making his character withdrawn and sensitive. The years he spent in boarding school made him suffer from the unreasonable school system, and when he entered the society, he experienced pain in love. On the bumpy road of life, he had to struggle hard every step he took, but Kaili, who was independent in thought and personality, had been trying to break away from the two shackles that restricted his spirit, religion and petty citizen consciousness, and tried to find the true meaning of life in the chaotic and chaotic life.
