William Somerset Maugham (1874-1965), English playwright, novelist and short story writer, was among the most popular writers of his era, and reputedly, the highest paid author during the 1930s. In spite of his popularity and international fame, Maugham did not receive critical attention for his fiction in Britain. Expressing his frustration with the situation Maugham wrote in his autobiography THE SUMMING UP, that he stood "in the very first row of the second-raters". Maughams skill in handling plot has been compared with the manner of Guy de Maupassant.
