Maugham William Somerset Theatre
Героиня романа Джулия Ламберт - талантливая актриса, подобно Моэму, принадлежит к числу людей с "холодным рассудком", все время "подглядывающих" за другими и за самой собой. Автор проводит свою героиню через ее любовь к мужчинам достаточно незначительным, можно сказать, безликим. И все это время Джулия живет другой своей жизнью - сценой. Перевоплощаясь в своих героинь, становясь из вечера в вечер другой индивидуальностью, она находит в этом спасение от своей глупой любви. Любовь и страдания, пережитые Джулией в жизни, обогатили ее как личность, и, принося на сцену не эмоции, а духовный опыт, она поднимается на новую ступень как актриса. Учебное пособие снабжено поурочными упражнениями для закрепления активной лексики урока и для развития навыков устной речи, а также комментарием, словарем и ключами к заданиям. Для всех, кто любит хорошую литературу и стремится расширить свои знания английского языка.

Maugham William Somerset Theatre
Julia Lambert is in her prime, the greatest actress in England. On stage she is a true professional, in full possession of her emotions. Off stage, however, she is bored with her husband, less disciplined about her behaviour. She is at first amused by the attentions of a shy but ambitious young fan, then thrilled by his persistence - and at last wildly but dangerously in love Although Maugham is most celebrated as a novelist and short-story writer, it was as a playwright that he first knew success. Theatre is both a tribute to a world from which he had retired and a persuasive testimony to his enthusiasm for drama and the stage.

Maugham S. Cakes and Ale
"Cakes and Ale" is both a wickedly satirical novel about contemporary literary poseurs and a skilfully crafted study of freedom. As he traces the fortunes of Edward Driffield and his extraordinary wife Rosie, one of the most delightful heroines of twentieth-century literature, Maugham's sardonic wit and lyrical warmth expertly combine in this accomplished and unforgettable novel.

Maugham William Somerset Then and Now
Stunningly written and cleverly done, Maugham masters the enthralling and shocking world of Machievelli. Maugham found a parallel to the turmoil of our own times in the duplicity, intrigue and sensuality of the Italian Renaissance. Then and Now enters the world of Machiavelli, and covers three important months in the career of that crafty politician, worldly seducer and high priest of schemers.

Another wide-ranging volume of essays from the prose master Eclectic and illuminating, these essays are the last that Maugham published.
