"Of Human Bondage" is a seminal novel written by W. Somerset Maugham, published in 1915. This literary masterpiece follows the life of Philip Carey, a young man with a clubfoot, as he navigates the complex and often painful journey of self-discovery. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century England, the novel explores themes of love, art, ambition, and the limitations that society and physical imperfections can impose on an individual. Philip's passionate and tumultuous relationships, particularly with the enigmatic and unpredictable Mildred, reflect the profound human desire for connection and purpose, making "Of Human Bondage" a timeless exploration of the intricacies of the human condition. Maugham's masterful storytelling and deep character development continue to captivate readers, making this novel a classic in the realm of English literature.

"The Painted Veil" is a novel set in 1920s China, following the troubled marriage of Kitty and Walter. When Kitty's infidelity is discovered, they go to a cholera-stricken village, leading to a transformative journey exploring love and redemption amidst adversity.

"The Moon and Sixpence" was published in 1919. Inspired by the life of the renowned French artist Paul Gauguin, the story revolves around Charles Strickland, a middle-aged English stockbroker who abandons his family and conventional life to pursue his passion for painting in Paris. The novel explores themes of art, obsession, and the clash between societal expectations and individual desires. Through Strickland's unrelenting pursuit of artistic freedom, "The Moon and Sixpence" delves into the complexity of creative genius and the sacrifices it may entail. Maugham's portrayal of Strickland's unconventional journey is a thought-provoking exploration of the tension between conformity and the pursuit of one's true calling.
