Of Human Bondage was first published in 1915. Maugham described it as an autobiophical novel in which fact and fiction are inextricably mixed. Philip Carey, a handicapped orphan, is brought up by a self-indulgent Victorian clergyman. Shedding his religious faith as a young man, he begins to study art in Paris, but finally returns to London to quality as a doctor.
