威廉·萨默塞特·毛姆(William Somerset Maugham,1874 -1965),英国小说家,剧作家,被誉为“故事圣手”。

生于巴黎,十岁前父母双亡,由叔叔接回英国抚养,因身材矮小,说话结巴,总被同龄人欺凌,性格孤僻敏感。

18岁在伦敦学医,后弃医从文。23岁时发表首部小说《兰贝斯的丽莎》,从此走上文学创作的道路。人生经历奇特,他做过助产,做过间谍,做过演员,做过救护车司机;他做过丈夫,做过情人,拒绝过女人的求婚,他的求婚也被另一个女人拒绝;他自称“四分之三喜欢女人,只有四分之一喜欢男人”。

在文学界,毛姆是一个优雅、老到、冷漠的人性观察者,几乎每一个人都能在他的故事中看到自己,这也让毛姆成为二十世纪炙手可热的作家。

他的后半生住在一座仙境般的别墅里,晚年几乎获得了整个欧洲文学界的一切殊荣。91岁时,逝于法国。

经典代表作:《月亮与六便士》《人性的枷锁》。

I confess that when first I made acquaintance with Charles Strickland I never for a moment discerned that there was in him anything out of the ordinary. Yet now few will be found to deny his greatness. I do not speak of that greatness which is achieved by the fortunate politician or the successful soldier; that is a quality which belongs to the place he occupies rather than to the man; and a change of circum-stances reduces it to very discreet proportions. The Prime Minister out of office is seen, too often, to have been but a pompous rhetorician, and the General without an army is but the tame hero of a market town. The greatness of Charles Strickland was authentic. It may be that you do not like his art, but at all events you can hardly refuse it the tribute of your interest. He disturbs and arrests. The time has passed when he was an object of ridicule, and it is no longer a mark of eccentricity to defend or of perversity to extol him. His faults are accepted as the necessary complement to his merits. It is still possible to discuss his place in art, and the adulation of his admirers is perhaps no less capricious than the disparagement of his detractors; but one thing can never be doubtful, and that is that he had genius. To my mind the most interesting thing in art is the personality of the artist; and if that is singular, I am willing to excuse a thousand faults. I suppose Velasquez was a better painter than El Greco, but custom stales one's admiration for him:
