Reader's note

Colour your bookshelf with a pop of red and add this wonderful first edition of W. Somerset Maugham's Creatures of Circumstance to your collection! This is a brilliant collection of short stories with fifteen wonderful tales in total. The author notes in his preface: 'I have never pretended to be anything but a storyteller. It has amused me to tell stories and I have told a great many. It is a misfortune for me that the telling of a story just for the sake of the story is not an activity that is in favour with the intelligentsia. I endeavour to bear my misfortune with fortitude.'
