The Moon and Sixpence pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
William Somerset Maugham was born in Paris in 1874. He spoke French even before he spoke a word of English, a fact to which some critics attribute the purity of his style.
His parents died early and, after an unhappy boyhood, which he recorded poignantly in 'Of Human Bondage' , Maugham became a qualified physician. But writing was his true vocation. For ten years before his first success, he almost literally starved while pouring out novels and plays.
During World War I, Maugham worked for the British Secret Service . He travelled all over the world, and made many visits to America. After World War II, Maugham made his home in south of France and continued to move between England and Nice till his death in 1965.

Charles Strickland, a conventional stockbroker, abandons his wife and children for Paris and Tahiti, to live his life as a painter. Whilst his betrayal of family, duty and honour gives him the freedom to achieve greatness, his decision leads to an obsession which carries severe implications. Inspired by the life of Paul Gauguin, The Moon and Sixpence is at once a satiric caricature of Edwardian conventions and a vivid portrayal of the mentality of a genius.

读后感
每个人心中都住着一个孩子，他总在和现实中的你唱反调，你却一直不肯抛弃他，甚至你觉得他，才是真实的你，而那个大家眼中的你，根本不是你。 他常常被你忽略，就像你会因为工作的忙碌，而疏忽家人一样。你对他的爱，也像是对家人一样，不会因为时间和距离而消逝，而是越来越...
评分有次跟邓正来吃饭，席间他批判现在人的“平庸”，我初以为这是精英对平民的歧视，他解释道：“我说的是平庸，平庸和平凡是两回事。平凡的人可以很伟大，而平庸的人即使成功也还是平庸。” 我看《月亮和六便士》的时候，就想起他这段话。 思特里克兰德，在四十多岁的时候，忽然...
评分查尔斯·思特里克兰德的人生大致分三段：在伦敦、在巴黎（马赛）和在塔希提。毛姆花了最多的篇幅描述他在巴黎的一场大病和一次艳遇，而他在这一场遭遇里几乎扮演了一个完全的反面角色，他忘恩负义、毫无同情心和基本的礼貌教养，相对的，除了施特略夫的只言片语，作者对他的绘...
评分去年，央视推出了名为《你幸福吗》的一系列采访，在路上随便逮个人就问“你幸福吗”。在我看来，这采访最大的问题不在于提问方式的突兀和问题的简单粗暴，而是它预先把“幸福”设定为一个值得追求与向往的目标，甚至是人生唯一目标。这就走向了堕落的反动派的阵营。 至于“幸...
评分书在开头就设下了一个巨大的谜团。一位在银行工作，有体面收入，家庭生活和睦的先生，一声不响地跑去了一个大城市，只给妻子儿女留下来一张“晚饭做好了”的字条。所有人都认为他跟一位女人私奔了。“我”受他的妻子委托，前往巴黎寻找他并求他回家，却得到了他要在那里画画的...

评分Words find themselves too plain to describe the gasping bruteness. What is it to be an artist? Totally moved by the latter part of the novel where the artist was wrapped with devinity and obscenity to the fatal end.
评分Maugham is really one of my favourite. He writes stories briefly. Dialogue, the relationships between people, the beginning, process and ending can be seen clearly. And I really love his tone. There is always an "I" in his novel, which makes me moving. However, this time i found something i did not notice before. From Moon to the Razor's edge, he found his way just like Strickland found his way to express through painting. Maugham is not able to describe the so-called power and home in this book, but he suceeded in the Razor's Edge. However, i still love the Moon and Sixpence the best. it's amazing to see the combination of these simple and shadow words brings such great influence everytime he described the paintings. it also shocks me again when i read chapter 50. Abraham, the name of faith. i still cling to the hope of one day i meet my own permanent Alexandria. To leave or to stay is of no importance. Just to meet it is enough for my forever nostalgia.
评分和想象的不一样。艺术作品描绘不如艾特伍德的猫眼，抛弃一切的天才形象不如安兰德的源泉，人物调侃不如萨奇的短篇。我们看不到男主角的想法，只是在无数的supporting characters 里打着转。嘲讽庸俗的人，嘲讽女性，嘲讽爱情，手法不算一针见血，但实在伤人。抛家弃子最大的问题便是妻儿的生计，可毛姆将这些人划分为庸俗，为有激情有梦想的男主角的累赘。这里的女性,只有狗，庸人，和无意义地赴死的人。我不喜欢这本书，我无法喜欢。
评分毛姆笔下的Strickland，即便在绘画方面有天赋有才华、以及他看不到六便士只看到月亮的独特魅力，也cover不了因其丧失基本人性和其本质自私而让我对他产生的极度厌恶感。整本书都能感受到毛姆对女性深入骨髓的轻视。
