Razor's Edge

Larry Darrell is a young American in search of the absolute. The progress of this spiritual odyssey involves him with some of Maugham's most brillant characters - his fiancee Isabel, whose choice between love and wealth have lifelong repercussions, and Elliot Templeton, her uncle, a classic expatriate American snob. The most ambitious of Maugham's novels, this is also one in which Maugham himself plays a considerable part as he wanders in and out of the story, to observe his characters struggling with their fates.

Progresul acestei odisee spirituala il implica cu unele dintre cele mai stralucitoare personaje ale lui Maugham - logodnica lui Isabel, a carei alegere intre dragoste si bogatie are repercusiuni pe tot parcursul vietii, si Elliot Templeton, unchiul ei, un clasic snob american expatriat.
