" Ce recueil s'inspire de mon expérience d'agent secret pendant la guerre, mais remaniée au service de la fi ction. Car la réalité est un piètre conteur. Elle entame ses récits au petit bonheur, en général bien avant le début de l'action, marche à l'aventure et décroche avant d'avoir dénoué les fi ls de l'intrigue... " Somerset Maugham a démontré, avant Ian Fleming et John Le Carré, que littérature et espionnage pouvaient faire excellent ménage. Somptueusement écrites, riches de descriptions et de poésie, ces nouvelles nous emmènent d'un pays à l'autre de l'Europe en guerre, brossant au passage des portraits corrosifs et drôles des personnages qu'Ashenden croise au gré de ses aventures, et qui tous – ou presque – se révèlent être des espions. Après Les Trois Grosses Dames d'Antibes et Madame la Colonelle, ce troisième volume de nouvelles est l'occasion de retrouver l'univers anticonformiste et cosmopolite de Maugham, le plus français des grands écrivains anglais du XXe siècle. " Conteur hors pair, Somerset Maugham a poussé le genre de la nouvelle jusqu'à la perfection. " Le Monde

Ashenden, Or The British Agent is founded on Maugham's experiences in the English Intelligence Department during World War I, but rearranged for the purposes of fiction. This fascinating book contains the most expert stories of espionage ever written. For a period of time after it was first published the book became official required reading for persons entering the secret service. The plot follows the imaginary John Ashenden who during World War I is a spy for British Intelligence. He is sent first to Geneva and later to Russia. Instead of one story from start to finish, the chapters contain individual stories involving many different characters. All of the people whom Ashenden meet during his travels have their own reason for being involved in the spy game, and each are more complex than they first look.

Fact is a poor story-teller as Maugham reminds us. Fact starts a story at random, rambles on inconsequently and tails off, leaving loose ends, without a conclusion. It works up to an interesting situation, has no sense of climax and whittles away its dramatic effects in irrelevance. While some novelists believe this is a proper model for fiction, Maugham believes that fiction should not seek to copy life, but instead choose from life what is curious, telling, and dramatic, but keep to it closely enough not to shock the reader into disbelief. In short, fiction should excite, interest, and absorb the reader.

When war broke out in 1914, Somerset Maugham was dispatched by the British Secret Service to Switzerland under the guise of completing a play. Multilingual, knowledgeable about many European countries and a celebrated writer, Maugham had the perfect cover, and the assignment appealed to his love of romance, and of the ridiculous. The stories collected in Ashenden are rooted in Maugham's own experiences as an agent, reflecting the ruthlessness and brutality of espionage, its intrigue and treachery, as well as its absurdity.
