Book Reviews of UP at the Villa
Book Review: A glimpse of how good Maugham is....
Summary: 4 Stars
Its cute, its quick, its fairly entertaining.... But it's Maugham boiled down. He's the king of suffering... of moral qualms.... of quirky, rich, upper class characters.... but he's good in length..... this is almost too short.... too bam, bam, bam.... the characters moral failings never have time to develop....
I recommend going to a library and reading this book... it's too short to buy.... but buying others "Cakes and Ale" "The Razor's Edge" and "Of Human Bondage". He's a brillaint author but I can't get myself to trumpet the praise of this work....
