W Somerset Maugham has written a book about his favourite novels. In this interview, Malcolm Muggeridge questions him about his choices, beginning with one of the authors who didn't make it into his top ten. In selecting his personal favourites, and with some provocation from Muggeridge, Maugham reveals something of his own philosophy on the character of a good novelist.
The book under discussion in this programme was published under the title 'Somerset Maugham and the Greatest Novels'. Later editions were released as 'Ten Novels and Their Authors'.
