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.

Review

One of my favourite writers -- Gabriel Garcia Marquez

A formidable talent, a formidable sum of talents...precision, tact, irony and total absence of pomposity ― Spectator

From the Inside Flap

Larry Darrell is a young American in search of the absolute. The progress of his spiritual odyssey involves him with some of Maugham's most brilliant characters - his fiancée Isabel whose choice between love and wealth have lifelong repercussions, and Elliott Templeton, her uncle, a classic expatriate American snob. Maugham himself wanders in and out of the story, to observe his characters struggling with their fates.

It's so good to return to read one of the masters of English literature

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 March 2019

Verified Purchase

To many modern readers some of the story, the characters, and their lifestyle may appear to be so old-fashioned as to be stilted. Look beyond this and revel in Somerset Maughan's minute details of the scenes and the people and you will discover how his observations have been translated into the written word. I defy anyone to master it better than he does. Today the study of someone who rejects the strictures of his upbringing to seek an alternative lifestyle is as poignant today as it was when it was written.

Samuel Barber

The Unemployed Man Judged by All

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 July 2014

Verified Purchase

This is a really good novel. I was advised to read Somerset Maugham over a decade ago, and went to the library to research all the titles under his name. After skimming through them I wasn't impressed. However, when I saw the film version of this book with Anne Baxter I thought I should read the book as I enjoyed the film. The reason why the film was good is because the book is good. If I was told to read 'The Razor's Edge' specifically and watch the film over a decade ago then that would have saved a lot of time. The reason why the book works is because of the writing. All of the characters are well drawn, and you get the feeling that Maugham is leaving stuff out rather than putting stuff in. I found Larry, Sophie, Gray and even Isabel engaging. Larry could be your contemporary unemployed man who is judged by everyone for living on benefit. Isabel is your typical middle class woman who has certain standards and doesn't want to drop below it for love or money. Sophie is an endearing character and I felt that more could be said about her. This is why I feel that stuff has been left out because we don't experience the tragic car accident that robs Sophie of her husband and children, nor do we get any indication of what she was like before she met her husband. It is for this reason why I think the novel should have been longer than its 341 pages.

A good read interesting characters.
The style is a little different from what I'm used to, but is easy to get used to.
It jumps about a little in places but manages to maintain a good chronology.
It get's a little heavy on the philosophy towards the end but as the author points out you don't need to read that chapter, I did and am none the worse for it.
I think it's less about 'Larry's life' than about the author.
Not my usual read but most enjoyable, will read more by this author.

Lovely book. Morality, good plot and a straightforward explanation of re-incarnation. Made a nice change from my Kobo recommendations First heard as a play on Radio 4 extra. Good play but the book is better.
