Somerset MaughamLanguage: EnglishISBN-10: 0099289504Description: Maugham spent the winter months of 1919 travelling fifteen hundred miles up the Yangtze river. Always more interested in people than places, he noted down acute and finely crafted sketches of those he met on countless scraps of paper. In the resulting collection we encounter Western missionaries, army officers and company managers who are culturally out of their depth in the immensity of the Chinese civilisation. Maugham keenly observes, and gently ridicules, their dogged and oblivious persistence with the life they know.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Travel & TransportRelease Year: 2000 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
