Dans The Casuarina Tree, recueil de six nouvelles préfacées publié en 1926, W. Somerset Maugham évoque la vie des colons britanniques qu’il a croisés en Malaisie cinq ans plus tôt. Il s’attache aussi à montrer que l’image littéraire de ce pays, véhiculée par des auteurs comme Conrad, ne correspond en rien à la réalité qu’il a rencontrée. Pourtant, en raison de sa défiance envers métaphores et descriptions, de ses sources factuelles d’information et de l’art de la nouvelle qu’il s’est imposé peu à peu, qui laisse peu de place consciente au symbolisme ou à l’engagement politique, Maugham hésite devant la tâche de rectification qui le tente.
