Good choice Wally! I love Maugham and recently re-re-re-re-re-read "The Razor's Choice," one of my all time favorite books. He captures a lot in a slim volume and there is one simple scene where he watches Isabelle look at Larry's wrist that manages to convey deep desire with a few simple paragraphs and nary a heaving bosom in sight. A wonderful writer and now I know what I am going to read over my long weekend: Of Human Bondage. As well, the biography by Ted Someone or other called "Maugham, A Life," is also pretty good. Another mark on my "to re-read" list. MG
