that scene in the razor's edge is my favorite too!!!!!!! how many times i
have looked at bob murphy that way!

ted morgan's biography has been unavailable for ages, and so has robert
calder's ''willie''.
if anybody wants to make a blue boy happy, now you know what i want for
christmas.

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.
