- Synopsis
- A Vintage Shorts "Short Story Month" Selection While stranded waiting for their ship to be released from quarantine, Dr. and Mrs. Macphail must share lodging with the insufferable Davidsons--self-righteous and over-zealous missionaries who also happen to be the only polite company on the god-forsaken island near Pago-Pago. But, things take a dreadful and unexpected turn when Mr. Davidson takes it upon himself to rescue the soul of their neighbor downstairs from second cabin--the insolent, carousing, and inimitable Miss Sadie Thompson. Harrowing and triumphant, "Rain" is indispensable reading, a foundational work for the tradition of short story writing, and one of W. Somerset Maugham's greatest tales. An ebook short.
