What is The Great Novels and Short Stories of Somerset Maugham about?

From London to Hong Kong, from Paris to Pago Pago, in Samoa or Malaya, or on a Tahitian tropical isle, the men and women in collection of masterfully crafted tales by Somerset Maugham inhabit exotic, mysterious worlds-and at their own peril invade the dark territory of the human heart. The novels and stories in this compilation include The Moon and Sixpence, Mrs. Craddock, The Magician, "Rain," "Mackintosh," "The Pool," and "The Fall of Edward Barnard." The Moon and Sixpence is widely considered a masterpiece, based on the life of painter Paul Gauguin, whose artwork is featured on the cover of this book. The novel has been adapted several times for the stage and the screen. Somerset Maugham, a noted English novelist, playwright, and author of masterly short stories, spent several months in the South Pacific in 1916 and 1917 during an interlude in his service in British intelligence during World War I. Several of his works have been made into movies and plays, including Razor's Edge, Of Human Bondage, Cakes and Ale, Rain, and The Moon and Sixpence. ** Source : Avxhm
