He heads to Bangkok, the capital of the Kingdom of Siam, now Thailand, where he spends a few weeks. He concludes his wanderings in French Indochina. Maugham confesses, in these pages, that he was a 'bad traveller'. He found it difficult to be surprised by what he encountered during his journey. He became accustomed too quickly to what he found along the way. What interested him above all was 'to wander from place to place' and to escape from himself: 'I never return from a journey with the same self I took with me.' It is this subjective, intrinsically personal character that makes A Gentleman in Asia an admirable travelogue. Maugham does not want to discover or reveal, he wants to tell stories. And when he doesn't find them along the way, he invents them.» — Carlos Vaz Marques, preface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent Edition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Published by Tinta-da-china, ensuring a quality finish and a fluid reading from the first to the last page.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmersive Reading Experience:\u003c\/strong\u003e The structure of the work allows for total immersion in the plot, ideal for moments of leisure or study, without distractions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign and Ergonomics:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ergonomic format that facilitates handling, making reading comfortable for long periods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDon't miss the opportunity to add this work to your collection.
