内容简介
Based on the life of Paul Gauguin,
The Moon and Sixpence is W. Somerset Maugham's ode to the powerful forces behind creative genius.
Charles Strickland is a staid banker, a man of wealth and privilege.??He is also a man possessed of an unquenchable desire to create art.??As Strickland pursues his artistic vision, he leaves London for Paris and Tahiti, and in his quest makes sacrifices that leaves the lives of those closest to him in tatters.??Through Maugham's sympathetic eye Stricland's tortured and cruel soul becomes a symbol of the blessing and the curse of transcendent artistic genius, and the cost in humans lives it sometimes demands.
作者简介
W. Somerset Maugham lived in France and England.??He died in 1965.

毛姆的文字有一种功力,宛若思特里克兰德的绘画那般,倾尽了全力的描述,把读者带入了一个抛弃一切而追逐艺术的精神境界。也许,没有完全带入,只是在某个瞬间,如一束阳光照亮了读者的心。透过这书阳光,我看到了天空的一角。
