I went through an intense Somerset Maugham phase after reading
Of Human Bondage. Who am I kidding? I'm still going through a Maugham phase. I re-read one of his short stories this week. Like Steinbeck, he's highly re-readable because he really understands people and creates true characters. I still don't think I've read everything he's written, but I have read everything I could find in libraries and bookstores. You can find some of his work at
Project Gutenberg.
This one looks interesting & it was well reviewed.

I still keep coming back to The Razor's Edge.
oh, but for more time. I'd fall into a virtual library somewhere and never be seen again. I don't know why Maugham reminds me of Romain Rolland - perhaps because they both were interested in Indian philosophy?
doesn't the word "Maugham" look funny, if you keep looking at it?
