De Amicitia and The Punctiliousness of Don Sebastian
W Somerset Maugham
Two of Maugham's earliest published short stories, one lighthearted and one darker, showcase the celebrated author's keen understanding of human nature.
"De Amicitia" describes the relationship of Valentia, an American art student studying in Paris, and a young English poet named Ferdinand as they naïvely agree to put friendship above love and travel as friends, challenging the conventions of the time.
In stark contrast, "The Punctiliousness of Don Sebastian" relates an ancient tale of revenge and shrewd maneuvering as the title character confronts his wife's infidelity and manipulates his way to a position of power.
Throughout both works, Maugham explores the human condition and the needs of the heart, combining clear-sighted writing with his characteristic wry wit.
