Maugham
The Storyteller Carleton Hobbs in The Facts of Life by W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM dramatised for radio by MALCOLM QUANTRILL
' Nicky remembered his father's advice not to have anything to do with women, but this was different: you only had to look at the pretty little thing to know at once that she was perfectly respectable.' But was she? And was father's advice ' not to gamble, nor to have anything to do with women ' really the last word on the matter?
The Facts of Life is Somerset Maugham at his most ironic, and at the same time at his most endearing, and the final twist to this ingenious little story is a masterpiece of the unexpected.
