‎William Maugham [Charter House; Charterhouse History]:‎

‎W. Maugham Charterhouse History Autograph Letter Signed from William Maugham to Percy Gye discussing Charter House where he is resident.‎

‎14 December 1874; Charter House. Provides invaluable information on the traditions of Charterhouse the ancient charitable London institution. Maugham may well be the translator of Charles Tilt's 1828 edition of Friedrich Christian Accum's A Practical Essay on Chemical Re-agents. 4 pages 16mo grubby but in otherwise good condition. The first page has a mourning border. 'Saturday was the anniversary of the feast devoted to the memory of the founder and the brothers in health feasted in the banquetting hall and I dare say enjoyed themselves. I am on the sick list and was happily excused. I had my dinner in my own room and along with it they sent me half a pint of good Port. To day there will be at seven o'clock a dinner in the same Hall when the Governors and Master along with numerous nobility and men of importance will no doubt be present. To-day they have sent to me another extra dinner of good things & half a pint of Port.' He asks his correspondent about a reference to 'travellers' whom he guesses are or were bound for Italy. 'We can receive anything here and we can take away whatever has once been sent to our rooms except our gown which we are expected to take care of for two years and then it becomes our own & is replaced by a new one. We only wear the gown at dinner and in the chapel; but we can wear it all day within the premises. If any one should go outside in his gown he would be fined £2 to be paid out of his quarterly allowance. Besides a comfortable room with firing and candles and attendance abundant we receive 10£ quarterly for clothes &c. Tea Sugar and all groceries we must find ourselves as well as wine spirits &c. We have to find our crockery & many other things. We are found bed and bedding one table and one chair all the rest we have to find ourselves. One day when I first came here seeing my bare oak boards an old friend of mine a country gentleman went and ordered me at a warehouse a Brussels carpet so that the room now is more comfortable.' Discusses a promise made by Gye's father to supply him with shirts. He would like to hear news of Ernest Lionel and Herbert. 'We can do whatever may be to our benefit. I may teach or write so as to increase my income. The translator of Dumas' works is here and there are several other literary brothers poets &c.' In a postscript he says 'A hamper should always be sealed underlined with Wax. My room is No 80 Cloisters. Mrs. Stone the Matron has her suite of rooms on the floor beneath me.' 14 December 1874; Charter House. hardcover‎

"He was always so entirely there."Originally published in 1915 Of Human Bondage is a potent expression of the power of sexual obsession and of modern man's yearning for freedom. This classic bildungsroman tells the story of Philip Carey a sensitive boy born with a clubfoot who is orphaned and raised by a religious aunt and uncle. Philip yearns for adventure and at eighteen leaves home eventually pursuing a career as an artist in Paris. When he returns to London to study medicine he meets the androgynous but alluring Mildred and begins a doomed love affair that will change the course of his life. There is no more powerful story of sexual infatuation of human longing for connection and freedom."Here is a novel of the utmost importance" wrote Theodore Dreiser on publication. "It is a beacon of light by which the wanderer may be guided. . . . One feels as though one were sitting before a splendid Shiraz of priceless texture and intricate weave admiring feeling responding sensually to its colors and tones."For more than seventy years Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

It was his mother. She stretched out her arms and the child nestled by her side. He did not ask why he had been awakened. The woman kissed his eyes and with thin small hands felt the warm body through his white flannel nightgown. She pressed the child closer to herself. "Are you sleepy darling" she said. Her voice was so weak that it seemed to come already from a great distance. The child did not answer but smiled comfortably. He was very happy in the large warm bed with those soft arms about him. He tried to make himself smaller still as he cuddled up against his mother and he kissed her sleepily. In a moment he closed his eyes and was fast asleep. The doctor came forwards and stood by the bedside. "Oh don't take him away yet" she moaned.</p> Alan Rodgers Books hardcover‎
