By Somerset Maugham. New Narration.
In the glittering certainty of Chicago society, Edward Barnard had once been the golden boy—ambitious, upright, and engaged to the most admired young woman in the city. But when tragedy shattered his future and exile sent him to a distant Pacific island, his letters home grew stranger, lighter, and tinged with an unsettling ease. Something, everyone agreed, had changed.
Now Bateman Hunter—Edward’s closest friend and the steadfast guardian of all that Chicago holds dear—returns from Tahiti with a story that will shake Isabel Longstaffe’s world. What he found there was not the broken, defeated man he expected, but someone far more disconcerting: a man who smiles too easily, works too little, and speaks of beauty and the soul with a serenity that borders on madness. And worse—Edward has fallen under the influence of the one man Chicago has sworn never to forgive.
Is it weakness? Is it liberation? Or has Edward Barnard abandoned everything ambition, loyalty, and love once meant? As Bateman recounts the strange, sunlit unraveling of the friend he thought he knew, The Fall of Edward Barnard becomes a haunting study of success, desire, and the unsettling question at its heart: What if losing the world is the only way to save yourself?
