Liza of Lambeth

ISBN: E100000016517 出版年：2005 页码： William Somerset Project Gutenberg

Down among the drab slums of Lambeth, eighteen-year-old Liza is the darling of Vere Street. Vibrant and bewitching, she is adored by the steady, loyal Tom. But then Liza meets Jim Blakeston, charming and worldy, new to the area, and married. Soon the streets are wise to their passionate affair and Liza's fall from grace is fast and fatal. Written while Maugham was a medical student, and his first published novel, "Liza of Lambeth" is a vividly realistic portrayal of working-class London life.
