In the nuclear fallout of recent cinematic Chernobyls, we turn for guidance to the cool imperial mind of master noticer-storyteller Somerset Maugham, who gave us a timeless satire of literary culture and clout-chasing in his novel Cakes and Ale (1930) and reached some uncomfortable conclusions about the meaning of art in his intellectual memoir The Summing Up (1936).
