Somerset Maugham narrates the story of a well off London stock broker who abandons his wife and children in midlife to become a painter. Maugham's characterization reveals that the pursuit of personal artistic vision is not without considerable sacrifice and the callousness of his character often falls under question. A beautifully written novel.
