Overview

A British playwright, novelist and short story writer. He was among the most popular writers of his era and reputedly the highest paid author during the 1930s. The first run of his first novel, Liza of Lambeth (1897), sold out so rapidly that Maugham gave up medicine to write full-time.

Of Human Bondage (1915) initially was criticized in both England and the United States; the New York World described the romantic obsession of the protagonist Philip Carey as "the sentimental servitude of a poor fool". --Wiki

East of Suez (1922)
A seven scene play by the man behind Of Human Bondage.

The Explorer (1907)
A daring, brilliant and dramatic novel -- a new revelation of Maugham's genius. A tangle of African adventures, a false tale, doubt and the final reconciliation of the lovers make up this pleasant story.

The Land of Promise (1911)
A Novelization of W. Somerset Maugham's Play.

Liza of Lambeth (1897)
"An interesting story of life and character in the Surrey-side slums, presented with a great deal of sympathetic humour."--Daily Chronicle.

The Trembling of a Leaf (1921)
Also published under the title "Rain, and Other Stories" after one of the stories was made into a movie starring Joan Crawford.

The Moon and Sixpence (1919)
Loosely based on the life of the painter Paul Gauguin, the story is told as a series of glimpses into the life of Charles Strickland, a middle-aged English stock broker who abandons his wife and children in order to pursue painting in Tahiti.

Of Human Bondage (1915)
This novel deals with the life of its main character Philip Carey, who, like Maugham, was orphaned and brought up by his pious uncle. Taking the form of a bildungsroman, Maugham traces the protagonist's travels to Germany, Paris, and London while exploring his intellectual and emotional development and later, in the London period, his destructive relationship with the main female character, a crude cockney waitress by the name of Mildred.
