The Moon and Sixpence

In the â€œThe Moon and Sixpenceâ€, Somerset Maugham narrates the story of Charles Strickland, a well off London stock broker who abandons his wife and children in midlife to become a painter. Strickland is convinced that he must paint, despite that fact that he has never done so. Perhaps inspired by the life of Paul Gauguin, Maughamâ€™s characterization of Strickland reveals that his pursuit of his personal artistic vision is not without considerable sacrifice and the callousness of his character often falls under question. Told in Maughamâ€™s absorbing story telling style, the novel gains depth and complexity in revealing the narratorâ€™s struggle to appreciate Stricklandâ€™s genuine artistic expression in view of his often incomprehensible behavior.
