East of Suez is a play written by William Somerset Maugham. It is set in the early 20th century and follows the story of Tom Randolph, a British diplomat who is sent to a remote outpost in the Far East. The play is divided into seven scenes, each depicting a different aspect of Tom's life in this foreign land. Throughout the play, Tom struggles to adapt to the customs and traditions of the local people, as well as to navigate the complex political landscape of the region. He also grapples with personal issues, such as his love for a local woman and his own sense of identity as a British citizen living in a foreign land. As the play progresses, Tom becomes increasingly disillusioned with his life in the East and begins to question the motives of his fellow diplomats and the British government. The play ultimately explores themes of imperialism, cultural clash, and personal identity. East of Suez is a thought-provoking and nuanced work that offers a glimpse into the complexities of life in the Far East during the early 20th century. It is a must-read for fans of Maugham's writing and anyone interested in the history of British imperialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
