The Moon and Sixpence

The Moon and Sixpence pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

William Somerset Maugham was born in Paris in 1874. He spoke French even before he spoke a word of English, a fact to which some critics attribute the purity of his style.

His parents died early and, after an unhappy boyhood, which he recorded poignantly in 'Of Human Bondage' , Maugham became a qualified physician. But writing was his true vocation. For ten years before his first success, he almost literally starved while pouring out novels and plays.

During World War I, Maugham worked for the British Secret Service . He travelled all over the world, and made many visits to America. After World War II, Maugham made his home in south of France and continued to move between England and Nice till his death in 1965.

Charles Strickland, a conventional stockbroker, abandons his wife and children for Paris and Tahiti, to live his life as a painter. Whilst his betrayal of family, duty and honour gives him the freedom to achieve greatness, his decision leads to an obsession which carries severe implications. Inspired by the life of Paul Gauguin, The Moon and Sixpence is at once a satiric caricature of Edwardian conventions and a vivid portrayal of the mentality of a genius.

有次跟邓正来吃饭,席间他批判现在人的“平庸”,我初以为这是精英对平民的歧视,他解释道:“我说的是平庸,平庸和平凡是两回事。平凡的人可以很伟大,而平庸的人即使成功也还是平庸。” 我看《月亮和六便士》的时候,就想起他这段话。 思特里克兰德,在四十多岁的时候,忽然...

Maugham is really one of my favourite. He writes stories briefly. Dialogue, the relationships between people, the beginning, process and ending can be seen clearly. And I really love his tone. There is always an "I" in his novel, which makes me moving. However, this time i found something i did not notice before. From Moon to the Razor's edge, he found his way just like Strickland found his way to express through painting. Maugham is not able to describe the so-called power and home in this book, but he suceeded in the Razor's Edge. However, i still love the Moon and Sixpence the best. it's amazing to see the combination of these simple and shadow words brings such great influence everytime he described the paintings. it also shocks me again when i read chapter 50. Abraham, the name of faith. i still cling to the hope of one day i meet my own permanent Alexandria. To leave or to stay is of no importance. Just to meet it is enough for my forever nostalgia.

on kindle. 地鐵讀物。好多似曾相識的東西。在10號綫上讀完瞭,雖然從小就聽說過,但發現竟然和模糊的想像完全不同。
