Octavo original green cloth. $3800.First edition very elusive first issue of Maugham's ""longest and most ambitious"" novel preceding the same year's London edition a beautiful copy.""Maugham's longest and most ambitious novel in which 'fact and fiction are inextricably mixed' draws heavily upon the author's own youth with circumstances and names scarcely altered"" Parker 63. ""As early as 1911 Maugham had retired temporarily from the theatre to work on his long novel Of Human Bondage. He was to correct the proofs under the admiring eyes of Desmond MacCarthy in a small hotel at Malo near Dunkirk; the two men were drivers in an ambulance unit for which they had volunteered at the outbreak of war in 1914 Of Human Bondage was published in 1915. It was less noticed in wartime London than in New York where Theodore Dreiser reviewed it with enthusiasm. It remains Maugham's most impressive literary work and by the time of his death 1965 was said to have sold ten million copies"" DNB. Basis for the 1935 film starring Bette Davis and Leslie Howard.
