About This Item
Synopsis
W. Somerset Maugham was born in Paris in 1874. He began to study medicine in London but the success of his first novel, Liza of Lambeth (1897) won him over to letters. Of Human Bondage (1915) and The Moon and Sixpence (1919) established his reputation as a novelist. His fame as a short story writer began with The Trembling of a Leaf in 1921, after which he published more than ten collections. He died in 1965.
