On a Chinese Screen (Unabridged)

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

In 'On a Chinese Screen,' Somerset Maugham recounts his 1920 journey through China. The book isn't a traditional travelogue but a collection of vignettes. Maugham sharply observes both his fellow Westerners and the Chinese people he encounters. He portrays the cultural clash between East and West with humor and insight. The book offers a time capsule of early 20th-century China while exploring themes of cultural misunderstanding, colonial attitudes, and the complexities of human nature.
