The Complete Collection of Maugham's Short Stories (7 Volumes in Total)

About This Novel
Anthony Burgess once said, "Maugham's real talents are all in the short stories he wrote. They are the best language I have ever read." Compared with longer stories, short stories may be what Maugham really loves to write, and they are also what he is most comfortable in writing, so people call him "the British Maupassant". In 1951, Maugham compiled 91 of his own short stories into the three-volume "Collected Short Stories" and personally wrote the preface for each volume. In 1963, the British Penguin Publishing Company republished it in four volumes. Since then, this version has been reprinted many times, translated into various languages, and circulated around the world. This set of "The Complete Collection of Somerset Maugham's Short Stories" (7 volumes) has been translated based on this. It is the first time in China that all the short stories of this great writer have been completely released, including "Rain", "The Lion's Coat", "The Man with the Scar", "Footprints in the Jungle", "The British Agent", "The Gluttonous Man" and "Portrait of a Gentleman".
