The Moon and Sixpence (classic Translation by Lin)

About This Novel

"The Moon and Sixpence" is one of Maugham's representative masterpieces. The story is partly based on the life of French post-Impressionist painter Paul Gauguin. Stock exchange broker Strickland's heart was burning with an unquenchable desire for art, so he abandoned his stable family life and wealthy economic environment, and left London alone to pursue his painting ideals in Paris and Tahiti. After experiencing a series of incredible twists and turns, he finally found the perfection of art and completed the sublimation of life. The game between survival and ideals, the coexistence of creation and destruction, are vividly demonstrated through the legendary experience of an artistic genius.
