First Edition. Near Fine in a very good plus dust jacket. A lovely, unmarked copy, with the blue cloth bright and the pages quite fresh, which is unusual for this fragile, war time published book, scarce in this condition. Some light rubbing to dust jacket; one-and-a-half inch closed tear to front panel, with another small tear at the bottom of the upper fold; and a very small chip top of spine. Duodecimo. 5 x 7.5 in. [iv], 284 pp. A great copy.

'The Razor's Edge' follows the story of a war veteran Larry Darrell and his quest for spiritual enlightenment in the chaos of post-WWI society. Maugham's novel explores themes of existential crisis, the search for meaning, and the complexities of human relationships.
