"Theatre" (1937) is Somerset Maugham's most famous novel.
A subtle, caustic story of a brilliant, intelligent actress who celebrates her "midlife crisis" with an affair with a handsome young "predator"? A "Vanity Fair" of the Roaring Twenties? Or a timeless, captivating book in which every reader finds something for themselves?
"All the world's a stage, and the men and women merely players!"
So it has always been—and so it always will be!

"The Patterned Veil" (1925) is a tragic love story set in a small town in China, where a young English bacteriologist and his wife arrive to fight a cholera epidemic.

"The Moon and Sixpence" (1919) is the stunning story of an artist who gave up everything for his dream.
His passion is freedom. His life is creativity. His paradise is an exotic Polynesian island. And his past is merely a sketch for his greatest work, in which the sublime and the mundane, the "moon" and "sixpence," merge.
