  • “Rain”: Depiction of American and Western European Imperialism
    ====================================================================== Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 19:5 May 2019 India’s Higher Education Authority UGC Approved List of Journals Serial Number 49042 ===================================================================== Maugham’s “Rain”: Depiction of American and Western European Imperialism Dr. B. Sudha Sai Assistant Professor, Department of English, G.I.T GITAM University, Visakhapatnam-530045 Andhra Pradesh, INDIA [email protected] ================================================================== Abstract The present article is an exploration of what happens when East meets West in a tropical setting. It is a study of the bizarre behaviour that results when a European temperament must face prolonged exposure to tropical climates and customs. It is one of the best short stories ever written by him, in its length and characterization along with resonance of real flesh and blood characters. One can find professionalism pervading the manner which he adopts for this story, the matter, theme, situations and the tropical settings to give the public exactly what they want. This story makes one marvel at its details, composition and ability to touch one’s soul with feelings. Even if one is not a fan of the short story form, feels after going through this story that Maugham’s writing is an exception. William Somerset Maugham is a worldly storyteller with incomparable knowledge of the humankind. His sense of insecurity as an orphan at an early age of ten, proper professional medical training, series of travels around the world, wartime experience in the secret service as a contact with spies during the Russian Revolution in 1917, interesting and varied life have benefitted him tremendously in his writing career.
