"Veil" makes perfect sense in that it raises imagery of that part of all of us that others cannot know. As the book shows, though, our "veils" are constantly changing. "Painted", though, raises imagery of something that may appear to contain movement or change but which is, in fact, fixed and unchangeable.<BR/>Thanks!<BR/>Brad83Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7391968722398796620.post-78250889815381142612008-12-19T21:48:00.000-04:002008-12-19T21:48:00.000-04:00This is one of my two favorite Maugham books, and I've read all but one of his. I reread it about a year ago, and my book club is reading it next December.

I agree that Kitty is hard to like at the beginning. I haven't seen the movie, but I'm curious as to how the movie ending differs.<BR/><BR/>--Anna<BR/><A HREF="http://diaryofaneccentric.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">Diary of an Eccentric</A>Annahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08046635675540466183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7391968722398796620.post-11758726291707469172008-12-04T08:28:00.000-04:002008-12-04T08:28:00.000-04:00I just picked this one up at the store--glad you liked it so much.

Fabulous review. I've read one or two Maugham books, but not this one. Now, I absolutely must. Need to see the movie, too, but I think reading first is best.Bookfoolhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7391968722398796620.post-28390261221339495502008-12-02T20:04:00.000-04:002008-12-02T20:04:00.000-04:00I've meant to read this book for awhile, your review is the best reason I've had.<BR/><BR/>It's so very sad about Dewey.
