Of course, her pregnancy and Maugham’s birth did little to alleviate her condition, so she had two more children after him, the last of whom was born on the 24th January 1882 and died the following day. Between the birth of the youngest of these three elder brothers and Maugham, Edith had contracted tuberculosis and the doctor had bizarrely prescribed childbirth as treatment, which led to Maugham’s birth so long after that of his brothers. Maugham’s deviation from the family career can perhaps be explained by his being raised effectively as an only child, for his three older brothers were already away at boarding school by his third birthday. Given that both Maugham’s father and grandfather were practitioners of law (Maugham’s grandfather, also named Robert, co-founded the English Law Society) it was assumed that Maugham and his brothers would follow suit, and his brother’s did his eldest, Viscount Maugham, served as Lord Chancellor in 1938-39. Robert was a lawyer dealing with the British Embassy’s legal affairs in Paris, and he arranged for Maugham to be born at the Embassy on British soil to ensure his exemption from the law of conscription into the French army for all boys born on French soil.

Its argument is stark: Our society, Horn argues, prefers to tell stories about how Jews died, rather than how they lived, because it’s much easier to mold dead Jews into martyrs and morality tales than it is to coexist with living ones. Given my occupation and obsessions, I read many books about Jews, and I’ve never read one like this. It’s compulsively readable, pugnaciously provocative, yet profoundly humanizing. People Love Dead Jews is not your typical book about Jewish history. She wanted to say, “I hope you will hate it as much as I do.” Her editors made her change the line. And it’s not how Dara Horn wanted to start People Love Dead Jews. This is not the way most books introduce themselves to their readers.

Youthful Katie Burkholder was a member of the Amish community, but realised that she could not live by its rules and strictures, and that her view of the world was not that of her coreligionists. But this is a Linda Castillo novel, and it will come as no surprise to the reader to realise that this peaceful town harbours dark secrets: over 10 years ago, a sequence of savage killings tore the community apart, and had a corollary affect. The setting is a placid Ohio town, Painters Mill, in which two groups of residents manage to rub along together: the religious sect, the Amish, and the ordinary residents of the town, known (in distancing fashion) as the ‘English’. In a variety of books, Linda Castillo has demonstrated that she has the smarts to rise above many of her rivals, and with her latest book, Sworn to Silence, she demonstrates that her customary skills are still firmly in place.
