あらすじ

Of Human Bondage, published in 1915, follows Philip Carey, an orphaned boy with a club foot, as he moves from childhood toward adulthood. Across boarding school and later travels abroad, Philip tries to understand what gives life meaning and what might lead to genuine happiness. He spends time pursuing art in Paris, then turns to the study of medicine in London. Throughout this journey, his intense infatuation with Mildred, a callous waitress, becomes a disruptive influence, challenging his plans and testing his ability to keep going.
