Copertina di W. Somerset Maugham: Far Eastern Tales (ePUB)

Far Eastern Tales is a collection of short stories born of Maugham”s experiences in Malaya, Singapore and other outposts of the former British Empire. Whether portraying a ship-borne flight from a lover”s curse, murder in the jungle, or a marriage shattered by a past indiscretion, they all reveal Maugham at his best – sometimes caustic, sometimes gently comic, but always the shrewd and human judge of character and soul.
