Dear Willie, you may well be right in thinking you write like Shakespeare. Certainly I have noticed during these last few months an adulation of your name in the more vulgar portions of the popular press. And one word of brotherly advice. Do Not Attempt the Sonnets.
Letter to his brother Somerset Maugham

Viscount Maugham

Quote of the day

Franz Kafka
