Read beautifully by Neil Hunt.
from Wikipedia:
"In 1958 Maugham stated in a CBC interview that Cakes and Ale was his favourite of all his novels.
Cakes and Ale: or, the Skeleton in the Cupboard (1930) is a novel by British author William Somerset Maugham. Maugham exposes the misguided social snobbery leveled at the character Rosie Driffield (Edward's first wife), whose frankness, honesty and sexual freedom make her a target of conservative propriety."
I really enjoyed listening to this beautifully written book that deals with society (class), art and sexuality in 1920s England with sly humor.
