Somerset Maugham is a travel book published in 1922. Based on Maugham's journey along the Yangtze River in 1919–1920, this collection of short sketches captures life in China through fifty-eight vignettes. While ostensibly about China, the book focuses equally on the Westerners Maugham encountered—examining their struggles to accept or adapt to enormous cultural differences as alienating as the country itself.
