A handsome collected volume from Heinemann's uniform edition, "The Selected Novels of W. Somerset Maugham: Vol. II" gathers further examples of Maugham's masterful long fiction, showcasing the cool, unsentimental prose and acute social observation that made him one of the twentieth century's most widely read novelists, as his characters, typically expatriates, colonial administrators, artists, and opportunists, confront moral compromise, romantic disillusion, and the gap between civilised pretension and human weakness across settings that range from the South Seas to the drawing rooms of Edwardian England.
