小说中,从第一人称视角来叙述,讲述了“我”在偶然间认识了一位证券经纪人,对方在人届中年后突然响应内心的呼唤,离经叛道舍弃一切,先是奔赴巴黎,后又到南太平洋的塔希提岛与土著人一起生活,全身心投入绘画,并在死后声名大噪。
其中的英国画家以法国后期印象派大师保罗·高更(Paul Gauguin,1848-1903)为原型。但除了生活的大致轮廓外,毛姆创造的完全是另外一个人物。小说是毛姆在游经塔希提岛后,回到欧洲后写成的。
一个英国证券交易所的经纪人,本已有牢靠的职业和地位、美满的家庭,但却迷恋上绘画,像“被魔鬼附了体”,突然弃家出走,到巴黎去追求绘画的理想。他的行径没有人能够理解。他在异国不仅肉体受着贫穷和饥饿煎熬,而且为了寻找表现手法,精神亦在忍受痛苦折磨。经过一番离奇的遭遇后,主人公离开文明世界,远遁到与世隔绝的塔希提岛上。他终于找到灵魂的宁静和适合自己艺术气质的氛围。他同一个土著女子同居,创作出一幅又一幅使后世震惊的杰作。在他染上麻风病双目失明之前,曾在自己住房四壁画了一幅表现伊甸园的伟大作品。但在逝世之前,他却命令土著女子在他死后把这幅画作付之一炬。
Charles Strickland, a rather dull and uninspiring London stockbroker leaves his wife and possessions to go to France, and later Tahiti to follow an ambition to express himself in painting. This desire to paint soon implodes into obsession, with grave repercussions. His life ended tragically, but he left a legacy of genius.
