Lust for Life

‘What am I in the eyes of most people – a nonentity, an eccentric, or an unpleasant person – somebody who has no position in society and never will have, in short, the lowest of the low. All right, then – even if that were absolutely true, then I should one day like to show by my work what such an eccentric, such a nobody, has in his heart.’
Vincent Van Gogh, in a letter to his brother Theo
Finished reading Lust for Life. Van Gogh’s passion, kind of almost frightens me. I think “explosive” or “volcanic” would be a befitting description.
Next, I plan to take up Moon and Sixpence.
..and in case you haven’t read Lust for Life - go and read it today!
It looks from your blog that you are quite an avid reader and an informed one too. After Last for Life u pick up Moon and the six pence - Life of Paul Gogan ….. Its really a good book. BTW have u tried any other book by Maughm like Of Human Bondage or the short stories
