Reader comments
After all, he is a world-class master, and his works more than a hundred years ago are still relevant today.
Master's work, teachable.
Almost done.
Wow, this book is great! Somerset Maugham's novels really opened my eyes! His portrayal of the characters was absolutely amazing, and I felt like I could see them come alive in front of me. Especially the painter in "The Moon and Sixpence", he gave up everything for his dream, he was really brave! I think Maugham was not only telling stories, but also made me think about the meaning of life. I highly recommend this book, you must read it!
