Description

Book Synopsis
Eclectic and illuminating, these essays are the last that Maugham published. Ranging from an appreciation of Goethe''s novels, to an encounter with an Indian holy man, with a considered analysis of the form at which Maugham himself excelled - the short story - they present the enduring views and opinions of this eminent writer.

Trade Review

One of the finest (though now frequently overlooked) novelists and dramatists of the 20th century * Glasgow Herald *
One of my favourite writers -- Gabriel Garcia Marquez
