East of Suez: A Play in Seven Scenes is a theatrical work by the renowned British author, William Somerset Maugham. It was first published in 1922 and is set in the early 20th century in the fictional British colony of Siam (now Thailand). The play revolves around the lives of a group of British expatriates living in Siam and their interactions with the local Siamese people. The main character, John Clive, is a British consul who falls in love with a Siamese woman named Santha. The play explores themes of colonialism, cultural differences, and forbidden love. It also delves into the complexities of relationships between the colonizers and the colonized, and the power dynamics that exist in such relationships. The play is widely regarded as one of Maugham's most successful works for the stage, and it continues to be performed and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
