Summary
The Razor’s Edge by W. Somerset Maugham is a profound novel about the search for meaning, the struggle between materialism and spiritual fulfillment, and the fragility of human happiness. Set against the backdrop of post–World War I society, the novel explores the journeys of individuals caught between worldly desires and higher truths.
At the heart of the story is Larry Darrell, a young American war veteran haunted by his experiences in combat. Rejecting conventional success and wealth, he embarks on a spiritual quest across Europe and Asia, seeking enlightenment and inner peace. His path contrasts sharply with that of his friends and acquaintances, who pursue ambition, love, and luxury within the constraints of society.
Through characters such as Isabel Bradley, who clings to social standing and wealth, and Elliott Templeton, a snobbish yet fascinating socialite, Maugham paints a vivid portrait of human desires and weaknesses. Sophie MacDonald’s tragic story adds emotional depth, underscoring the vulnerability of those unable to reconcile personal loss with life’s demands.
Narrated with Maugham’s characteristic elegance and insight, the novel balances irony with compassion. It examines the choices people make when confronted with the tension between worldly success and spiritual longing.
The Razor’s Edge is both a philosophical meditation and a deeply human narrative. It remains one of Maugham’s most celebrated works, offering readers a timeless reflection on life’s purpose, the cost of self-discovery, and the fine line—like a razor’s edge—between fulfillment and despair.
