Sinopsis
The Razor's Edge , by W. Somerset Maugham, first published by Doubleday Doran in the United States in 1944, relates the experiences of a World War I pilot, Larry Darrell, who chooses to embrace a counter-cultural lifestyle as a way of dealing with his PTSD, though the syndrome is of course not identified as such in the book. This book challenges the cultural ideals of the 1940s, and disregards the stereotype of the returning military hero. Some controversy surrounded the publication of this book because of its lack of patriotic fervor and its embrace of bohemian ideals, but today it is regarded as one of the more important pieces of American literature from the 1940s. -

Sobre Beth's Book Rescue
This is my first adventure into the book selling and collecting world. This is a hobby for me so once I am able to make a profit, I plan on making at least a 25% of the profit donation to The North American Council on Adoptable Children (or another children focused charity, I'm open to recommendations!)I am currently in the process of cataloguing a large number of books, so a lot don't yet have descriptions or pictures. If you are interested in a book that doesn't have these, feel free to message me the title or inventory number and I will gladly send you more info.
