Maugham's Magnum Opus: 'The Summing Up' Book Review

Episode 30: Thanks to James Salter's memoir 'Burning the Days', I discovered W. Somerset Maugham's memoir 'The Summing Up' and have come to agree with Salter that it's Maugham's best book. Maugham has the rare ability to take on profound themes and do them justice with intellectual clarity and accessible prose. People often say that 'The Summing Up' is essential reading for aspiring writers. I think it's essential reading for mature writers. Books mentioned: The Summing Up, by W.
