5.0 out of 5 stars as good as fiction gets!!!, July 24, 2007
This review is from: A Thing Of Beauty (Hardcover)
I sincerely believe this book to be one of the greatest works of fiction. Incredible book this and I have read it many times over. In contrast to Maugham's callous hero in the "Moon and Sixpence", Paul Desmond is the normal likable chap. The book provides a psychological window into his mind - his fears, his idealism, his weaknesses and his passion to paint. Though he meets with much opposition in pursuit of his passion, ultimately his talent prevails and he triumphs - even while he is alive.

book is also available as crusaders tomb.
