Description: Theatre - A Novel by W. Somerset Maugham. The superb, brilliant and beautiful actress, Julia Gosselyn, is the sparkling heroine of this ironical story of the theatre world. Julia, a consummate artist, and a tremendously successful actress is a faithful and devoted wife to her actor-manager husband, known as the "handsomest man in England". Her "backstage" intrigues and Bohemian life, lead her into temptation to which she unwillingly yields. The story of her life as it is changed from an artistic and accomplished personality, to a jealous and conscious ridden woman, makes entertaining kind of reading. Theatre might be described as a superb tragi-comedy. Brilliant and sardonic, it is made utterly convincing and profoundly moving by the magic pen of W. Somerset Maugham. This book measures 6 1/2" by 4 1/2" with 256 pages. This is a great slightly read copy of this book that does have some edge wear, there is a front cover crease where the cover is opened, slant to the spine, chipping to the paint on the edges of the spine, pen marks on the back cover, few faint creases on the covers, yet still a tight, great copy of this book. End page has numbers to 56. Please look carefully at the pictures for the best idea of the condition. This is another wonderful book from the late Mark Goodman, Green Lion Books.
