📝 Description
The Razor's Edge is a classic novel by W. Somerset Maugham that tells the story of Larry Darrell, an American pilot traumatized by his experiences in World War I, who sets off on a spiritual quest to find meaning in his life. The book explores themes of Eastern philosophy, the rejection of materialism, and the difficult path to enlightenment. The title is derived from a verse in the Katha Upanishad, suggesting that the path to salvation is as narrow and difficult to walk as the sharp edge of a razor.
