and Noel Coward knew some of them and successfully cast them in classic plays, such as Brief Encounter, Separate Tables and The Winslow Boy.

Yet he does not lack sympathy despite the ironic humour, and for this I like him. Amazon have the compete short stories of Somerset Maugham used and new for $5.25. ...

beautifully written, great plot. bit on the heavy side.

great writing, true style, extraordinary author long to read but captivating

ribald and hilarious tale of magic, eroticism and unexpected transformations might be a bit *too* naughty for sensitive readers
