The Moon and Sixpence
About This Novel
"The Moon and Sixpence" was written in 1919. The work is based on the life of French Impressionist painter Paul Gauguin. It describes the story of Strickland, an originally ordinary London stockbroker, who suddenly became obsessed with art, abandoned his wife and children, gave up what others thought was a prosperous and happy life, and went to Tahiti in the South Pacific to write his own glorious life with a round pen and inject all the value of life into the gorgeous canvas.
