Willie Somerset Maugham is one of the greatest writers of the early
twentieth century. But in 1921 he is beleaguered by an unhappy
marriage, ill-health and business interests that have gone badly awry.
He is also struggling to write.
His friend Robert Hamlyn offers an escape in the Straits Settlements of
Penang, where Robert’s steely wife Lesley learns to see Willie as he is
– a man who has no choice but to mask his true self.
As Willie prepares to leave, Lesley confides in him secrets of her own,
including how she came to know the charismatic revolutionary Dr Sun Yat
Sen. And more scandalous still, her connection to an Englishwoman
charged with murder in the Kuala Lumpur courts – a tragedy drawn from
fact, and worthy of fiction.

ASIAN LITERARY PRIZE AND THE WALTER SCOTT PRIZE Teoh Yun Ling was
seventeen years old when she first heard about Aritomo and the
garden. But a war would come to Malaya, and a decade pass before
she would travel to see him. A man of extraordinary skill and
reputation, Aritomo was once the gardener for the Emperor of Japan,
and now Yun Ling needs him. She needs him to help her build a
memorial to her beloved sister, killed at the hands of the
Japanese. She wants to learn everything Aritomo can teach her, and
do her sister proud, but to do so she must also begin a journey
into her own past, a past inextricably linked with the secrets of
her troubled country. A story of art, war, love and memory, The
Garden of Evening Mists captures a dark moment in history with
richness, power and incredible beauty.
