Description

Of Human Bondage, published in 1915 by W. Somerset Maugham, is a semi-autobiographical novel that delves into the complexities of human existence and the struggle for personal freedom. The story follows Philip Carey, an orphan with a clubfoot, as he navigates life’s hardships, grapples with unrequited love, and seeks meaning in a seemingly indifferent world. Maugham intricately explores themes of desire, obsession, and the quest for identity against the backdrop of early 20th-century England, including the artistic and intellectual movements of the time.Philip's turbulent relationship with the enigmatic waitress Mildred further illustrates the destructive nature of passion and the ways in which individuals are bound by their own desires. Maugham’s compelling prose and keen psychological insight render the novel both a poignant coming-of-age tale and a profound philosophical meditation on the nature of freedom and the constraints of human bonds. Of Human Bondage remains a timeless exploration of the human condition.
