Of Human Bondage is the first and most autobiographical of Maugham’s masterpieces. It is the story of Philip Carey, an orphan eager for life, love and adventure. After a few months studying in Heidelberg, and a brief spell in Paris as would-be artist, Philip settles in London to train as a doctor. And that is where he meets Mildred, the loud but irresistible waitress with whom he plunges into a formative, tortured and masochistic affair which very nearly ruins him.
William Somerset Maugham was born in 1874 and lived in Paris until he was ten. He was educated at Kings School, Canterbury, and at Heidelberg University. He spent some time at St. Thomas Hospital with the idea of practising medicine, but the success of his first novel, Liza of Lambeth, published in 1897, won him over to literature. Of Human Bondage, the first of his masterpieces, came out in 1915, and with the publication in 1919 of The Moon and Sixpence his reputation as a novelist was established. At the same time his fame as a successful playwright and writer was being consolidated with acclaimed productions of various plays and the publication of several short story collections. His other works include travel books, essays, criticism and the autobiographical The Summing Up and A Writers Notebook.
In 1927 Somerset Maugham settled in the South of France and lived there until his death in 1965

在毛姆的自传体小说《人生的枷锁》中,主人公菲利普孜孜不倦地追求生活的真谛。他先是经历了信仰的破灭,继而又在非道德主义者克朗肖的引导下抛弃了道德,确立了“为所欲为”的行事准则。然而在这之后,他并没有获得他所料想的自由,反而陷入了更深的虚无危机。最终,菲利普悟...
评分周末,从长乐路往华山路上拐过去,在希尔顿酒店对面,有几间灯红酒绿的小酒吧,一律是黄木窗棂,门外放了整整齐齐的桌子、椅子。我们路过时,八点左右,几间酒吧除了洋酒缤纷外,客人寥寥无几。只有一家酒吧,触目地与马路对面尊贵的希尔顿酒店,做着有趣的对峙。10多位女人,...
评分继《月亮与六便士》,《刀锋》以后,又一鼓作气把《人生的枷锁》看完了。毛姆的文笔简练,冷静中透着幽默,读起来如行云流水,实足是一种享受。 但我非要为《人生的枷锁》写上一篇评论的原因,恰恰是因为这是三者中最令我感到痛苦的一本书。这种痛苦源自于对生活真相毫不掩饰...
评分一 我们活着,就是要用心去感受这个世界。 读毛姆的书,就好像和一个老朋友聊天。他很擅长讲故事,也描述得相当经常精彩。你仿佛看到一个沉着稳重的老者,不慌不忙地娓娓道来。他侃侃而谈,从容不迫。从不过多的解释,也无需太多修饰。一句话,一个词,蓦然地让你领会他全部的...
评分一年前,我在巴黎回布鲁塞尔的地下大巴站,La Defense,那个荷兰杂技场工人坐到了我旁边。他让我想起豪夫童话里黑森林的“荷兰鬼”,高而黑瘦,尽显沧桑的脸,穿着古怪的菱格喇叭裤和猎人背心,背后一个沉重的大包。然而他用比整个圣日耳曼区的人都标准的英语向我问好。 大巴...
