Description: "The Moon and Sixpence" by W. Somerset Maugham is a novel inspired by the life of the painter Paul Gauguin. It tells the story of Charles Strickland, a London stockbroker who abandons his family and career to pursue his passion for art. Strickland's single-minded dedication to painting leads him to Paris and ultimately to Tahiti, where he creates his greatest works. The novel explores themes of artistic obsession, the clash between conventional societal values and the pursuit of personal fulfillment, and the sacrifices made for creative expression. Maugham's narrative delves into the complexities of Strickland's character, painting a vivid portrait of a man driven by an unyielding vision. This is a First Edition from 1919 published by Grosset and Dunlap by arrangement with George H. Doran Company, printed in the USA.
