Sobre este artículo
Very little wear. The cover has some very minor crimping at the top and bottom of the spine, and little else. Pages are clean, tight and unmarked. This book illustrates the frustration of trying to sell older books. The only date given is 1911, the date of first publication, but as this is a Modern Library Edition from Random House, I knew that wasn't the date for this volume, as Random House didn't exist in 1911. (Bennet Cerf is on the logo, and he was only 13 in 1911.) Eventually I searched images for other books that looked like this one. The majority indicated 1942, so that is what I went with, although I have no idea where they got that year. In a caution for online book shoppers, one seller was claiming the book as being a 1911 first edition. Do your own research and do not take what the seller says without a little corroboration.
Sinopsis
Of Human Bondage is a novel by W. Somerset Maugham. It is generally agreed to be his masterpiece and to be strongly autobiographical in nature, although Maugham stated, "This is a novel, not an autobiography, though much in it is autobiographical, more is pure invention. " Maugham, who had originally planned to call his novel Beauty from Ashes, finally settled on a title taken from Spinoza's Ethics

Many of my books are oversized. Rather than ask for shipping adjustments at the time of purchase, the list price for heavier books includes the excess shipping cost. All of my photographs are of the actual product, taken by my trusty little Kindle Fire. Currently we have about 2900 books offered for sale online, with more being added daily.
