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.

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

英文版，英文表达方式稍微有点和现在不一样，但是还是能顺畅读下去的。

主要是孤独吧，因此可以理解 Philip 与 Mildred 之间的情感纠葛。以前读译本时还奇怪P为什么选择了结婚，现在在读了一串毛姆的小说后我觉得毛姆还是有那么几年向往婚姻、渴望被爱、远离孤独。所以他把结局收成了结婚，也算他了结了他的念想吧。另外毛姆后来弃医从文，因此P从医后的故事他也不能写、不好写了，点到为止即可。P或毛姆真的是很孤独，全书的高频单词就是 Solitary.

Long indeed but comparably intriguing 中途Philip和Mildred纠葛看的甚至有点恼火…笔触好像也跟着男主一起慢慢成熟，看到the meaning of life is no meaning那一段蛮感慨的，终于挣脱了枷锁
