INDIVIDUAL READING: TERM SIX

The book for Individual Reading 
is 
William S.Maugham's  
The Moon and Sixpence.


  
(25 January 1874 – 16 December 1965) was a British playwright, novelist and short story writer. He was among the most popular writers of his era and reputedly the highest paid author during the 1930s.


The Moon and Sixpence is a novel by W Somerset Maugham, told in episodic form by a first-person narrator, in a series of glimpses into the mind and soul of the central character Charles Strickland, a middle-aged English stockbroker, who abandons his wife and children abruptly to pursue his desire to become an artist. The story is said to be loosely based on the life of the painter  Paul Gauguin.



The book is available in the MGOSGI library.

The e-book is available at Gutenberg Project.
