What's this?

She might like The Razor’s Edge, by W. Somerset Maugham...


Published in 1944, it tells the story of Larry Darrell, an American pilot traumatized by his experiences in World War I, who sets off in search of some transcendent meaning in his life.

Was made into a movie as well, with Bill Murray in an early dramatic role.
