From an orphan with a clubfoot, Philip Carey grows into an impressionable young man with a voracious appetite for adventure and knowledge. Then he falls obsessively in love, embarking on a disastrous relationship that will change his life forever.
William Somerset Maugham (1874–1965) studied medicine, but the quick success of his first novel, Liza of Lambeth (1897), started him on his lifelong literary career, during which he would become one of the most popular English authors since Dickens. His own life, however, was more tragic, shocking, and fascinating than any novel. After his adored parents died, he grew up in a miserable vicarage and suffered from a physical handicap of which he was ashamed. During his lifetime, Maugham would marry and divorce, be sent to Russia as a spy, and entertain such celebrities as Jean Cocteau, Winston Churchill, Noël Coward, the Aga Khan, and Ian Fleming at his Riviera mansion. Among his masterpieces are Of Human Bondage, The Painted Veil, The Razor’s Edge, and The Moon and Sixpence. In addition, such works as “The Letter” and “Rain” established Maugham as a gifted short story writer.
Benjamin DeMott (1924–2005) was professor of English and the Mellon professor of humanities at Amherst College. The author of two novels, he was best known for his cultural criticism in leading periodicals and in such books as The Imperial Middle: Why Americans Can’t Think Straight About Class and The Trouble with Friendship: Why Americans Can’t Think Straight About Race.
Maeve Binchy (1940–2012) was the New York Times bestselling author of Quentins, Scarlet Feather, Tara Road (an Oprah’s Book Club Selection), Circle of Friends, Light a Penny Candle, and many other novels.

评分又臭又长 字里行间充满了Gay毛兄对自己的怜惜.....《刀锋》写的辣么给劲 看来egoism是非天才作家的大忌
评分the best of youth 2
评分It might be that to surrender to happiness was to accept defeat, but it was a defeat better than many victories.
评分意犹未尽
没想到菲利普终于过上了幸福生活,起码到作者停笔那会是。这些天断断续续旁观这个人的故事,差不多以为他要孤苦终老。结尾让人意外,肥皂剧的味道多少有点突兀。 每逢遇到“半自传体”,想象力都会掺水,因为作者自己也没法不把读者引入他的经历。菲利普和毛姆的轨迹如出一辙...
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15岁的时候,我读到了这本书。 其中这一段,直到今天我也不敢重看。 “你具有某种手工上的灵巧,经过刻苦努力和坚持不懈,没有理由成不了一个认真的,还算能干的画家。你能够找到数以百计比你画得差的人,也可以找到数以百计画得同你不相上下的人。在你让我看的所有画作中我看...
