Book Synopsis:
W. Somerset Maugham’s The Painted Veil is a moving tale of love, betrayal, and redemption set against the haunting backdrop of 1920s colonial China. The story follows Kitty Fane, a young woman trapped in a loveless marriage, who seeks escape in an ill-fated affair. When her husband, a reserved bacteriologist, discovers her infidelity, he compels her to accompany him to a remote Chinese village devastated by a deadly cholera epidemic. Amid suffering, danger, and the clash of cultures, Kitty confronts the consequences of her choices and begins a journey toward self-discovery, forgiveness, and transformation. Written with Maugham’s trademark elegance and psychological insight, this modern classic explores the complexities of human emotion and the possibility of grace amidst despair. A timeless exploration of love and morality, The Painted Veil remains one of Maugham’s most enduring works. Order your book in Pakistan from Bookshelf.pk
