The Moon and Sixpence
William Heinemann, 1919.
First edition. Publisher's green cloth, lettered and decorated in black. A good copy, cocked and a little worn, the contents slightly browned.
Maugham was fascinated by the impact of the arrival of modernism from Europe on an insular British consciousness and the emergence of the cult of the modernist artist-genius... The Moon and Sixpence is at once a satire of Edwardian mores and a Gauguin biography. [Dickson]
