INDIVIDUAL FEATURES OF U.S. MAUGHAM'S ARTISTIC STYLE

This article examines the artistic and stylistic features of U.S. Maugham's literary style. The author gives examples of wonderful stylistic tools characteristic of Maugham's pen. William Somerset Maugham is known primarily as a playwright, short story writer, and novelist; he is not a creator of literary theory in the strict sense of the word, but a large number of observations about his own work and that of other writers; his literary criticism of some Russian and Western classics; his philosophical and aesthetic sketches allow us to talk about him as a major and extraordinary literary scholar who offered his original understanding of the novel. Also, the author uses stylistic methods such as metaphor, oxymoron, anaphoric repetition in his works, but most importantly, he describes shades of irony, i.e. ironic tone.
