PUNQ

Rated 22 Nov 2023

Following Quartet (1948) and Trio (1950), comes more excellent short stories from W. Somerset Maugham in the form of a Encore (1951). Wasn't so much a fan of the middle one, but the first and the last one, added with that stunt to close it, was a real good time. Three brief and too the point stories with that good old British wit.

Excellent entry in the Maugham anthology series presents three entertaining tales; the second featuring Walsh as a hilariously chattering and gossipy cruise passenger is arguably the best, though Patrick is great fun as a snide relative in part 1, and Johns' portrait of a high-dive artist in part 3 is very poignant and moving (and quite different in tone from the earlier episodes).
