Product Information

This third volume of Maugham's stories, introduced and selected by the author himself, contains the celebrated series about Ashenden, a secret service agent in WWI. Based on Maugham's own experiences with the British Intelligence service in Switzerland, the stories are vignettes in which he dramatizes both the romance and absurdity of espionage as well as its ruthlessness and brutality. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Somerset Maugham's writing is very enjoyable!
I have been extremely interested in investigating Warren Zevon's personal library. I was not familiar with Somerset Maugham until reading these short stories. And the investigation doesn't stop with just reading the book, then I had to figure out what Somerset's life was all about. That was another whole point of interest beyond his writings. Thanks Warren!
