Reading on the Ave Book Club: The Razor's Edge (public event)

All are welcome to attend the Reading on the Avenue Book Club, which meets in the Community Room of Willow Glen Library on the 4th Monday of every month. On March 22, we'll be discussing The Razor's Edge by W. Somerest Maugham.

Larry Darrell is a young American in search of the absolute. The progress of his spiritual odyssey involves him with some of Maugham's most brilliant characters - his fiancee Isabel whose choice between love and wealth have lifelong repercussions, and Elliott Templeton, her uncle, a classic expatriate American snob. Maugham himself wanders in and out of the story, to observe his characters struggling with their fates.
