Industry Reviews
"When one closes the book and looks back over the varied scenes, civilized and barbaric, one has a memory of powerful and inevitable movement and the light and shadow of life itself."
Dial - Maxwell Anderson (11/29/1919)
"Among the practitioners of the new fiction, Maugham is preeminent for controlled power, steady vision and noble lucidity of mind. His acceptance of reality is quite free of the morbid revulsion embedded in the works of the French naturalists and their disciples; it is stern and humble and serene at once....Mr. Maugham's purely intellectual virtues, and they are perhaps his highest, appear more nakedly and at least as trenchantly in his new book."
Anderson
"Though it is Strickland who dominates the book and Strickland is a man unlike and apart from ordinary humanity, the novel produces a remarkable effect of reality, an effect due in great measure to the admirable drawing of the minor characters....Mr. Maugham has a way of getting beneath the surface and bringing to light what he finds there, putting forth his discoveries in a style which though clever is never permitted to become merely smart."
Anderson
