The moon and sixpence
Maugham's The Moon and Sixpence is an easy novel to read. No wonder Maugham was the best storyteller. Maugham had a keen insight, which was shown in his love of dissecting the behavior of his characters in order to see their hearts. Every child who was isolated in childhood would probably develop a sensitive mind. I rather like this novel, because I see a feeling that makes me happy. It is a feeling of choosing to follow the holy but slightly ethereal moon in the moon and sixpence. It is not worth living a life of abundance and security, but always ignoring the desires of one's heart. In his delight, he gave me a slap on the head, for this romantic and brave practical idealist was in one way a morally corrupt jerk, even a kind of conscience numb to fulfill his dream and ultimately the great name of genius. This is life and art pursuit in the protagonist of the tear, the novel is a novel, genius is only an exception, but this similar contradiction will not be unfamiliar to every reader.
