В В В В I'm fond of reading. My favourite writer is William Somerset

Maugham and i would like to tellВ aboutВ hisВ biography.

William Somerset Maugham was born in 1874 and spent his childhood

in Paris in the familyВ of a BritishВ diplomat. HavingВ lostВ his

parents at an early age, he went toВ liveВ inВ EnglandВ withВ his

uncle, who was a clergyman. He was educated at King'sВ schoolВ in

Canterbury studied painting in Paris, went to Heidelbury University

in Germany and spentВ six years at St.ThomasВ Hospital in England

studying to be a doctor. He was an unsatisfactory medical student

for his heart wasn't inВ medicin. He wanted, he had always wanted

to be a writer and in the evening after his tea, he wrote and read.

В В В В In 1897 heВ wrote a novel called "Liza of Lambeth", sentВ it

to a publisher andВ itВ wasВ accepted.В ItВ wasВ somethingВ ofВ a

success. So WilliamВ SomersetВ MaughamВ decidedВ toВ abandonВ his

medical profession and he did it with relif. The nextВ tenВ years

were very hard on him. He learned theВ terribleВ difficultiesВ of

making a living by writing. But he survived. He becameВ aВ famous

writer. He never regretted the five years heВ hadВ spentВ atВ the

hospital. They taught him pretty well allВ heВ knewВ aboutВ human

nature.

В В В В The novel "The moon and sixpence" (1919)В isВ basedВ onВ the

life of the artist Paul Gauguin was an immediate success. Maugham

went to Tahiti and lived in Gauguin's hut while writing the book.

His fame as a short story writer began with "The TremblingВ ofВ a

leaf". Since then he wrote many collections of books, essaysВ and

criticism. ManyВ ofВ hisВ booksВ andВ storiesВ cameВ outВ ofВ his

extensive travels in the East. HisВ autobiographicalВ books В "The

summing up" and "A writer's Notebook"В areВ remarkableВ forВ both

style and sincerity. His books have been reprinted many times.

В В В В In 1927 William Somerset Maugham settledВ inВ theВ SouthВ of

France and lived there until his death in 1965.
