The Complete Jerome K. Jerome: The Collected Works (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Jerome K. Jerome is rightly famed for his peerless work of comic genius 'Three Men in a Boat', and it's hugely successful sequel, 'Three Men on the Bummel', but beyond these two titles, much of his other work is now forgotten. This comprehensive collection contains the complete works of this hilarious and talented author, incorporating fiction, drama and essays and observances, as well as the Autobiography of the author. Rich with humour and insight, collections of essays such as 'Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow' offer a priceless insight into the life and times of late Victorian and Early Edwardian England - a time of apparent luxury and indolence, but also great social and technological change. The voice of Jerome K. Jerome is never far from the action, with his wry wit and piercing observances standing the test of time, and still never failing to raise a smile and a laugh from the reader. This ebook has been carefully edited and formatted, and provided with beautiful color illustrations. All of the short stories have been preserved in the collections in which they were originally published, and all of the texts have dedicated active tables of contents.
