The novel "Pies and Beer, or Skeleton in the Closet" - about the writer's work and "life's trash", from which grow true works of art - Maugham considered his favorite, and critics unanimously recognized one of the "highest achievements of British novelistics.
In the center of the story - the fate of the famous English writer Edward Driffield, whose creative path was contradictory and thorny. At the dawn of his career he was heard unsophisticated realist, who was despised by the whole city and rejected by the literary milieu, and at the end of his life became a recognized classic. Does this prove that writing is not just a profession, but a special way of thinking and acting?
