Books like Far Eastern Tales

Short stories, all born of Maugham's experiences in Malaya, Singapore and other outposts of the former British Empire. Whether portraying a ship-borne flight from a lover's curse, murder in the jungle or the remembered East of a repatriate's suburban home, they reveal Maugham as a shrewd and human judge of character and soul.Footprints in the JungleMabelP. & O.The Door of OpportunityThe Buried TalentBefore the PartyMr. Know-AllNeil MacAdamThe End of the FlightThe Force of Circumstance
