Essays

By: Jerome K. Jerome

Narrated by: Roy Macready

Jerome K. Jerome is of course known for the hilarious adventures of “Three Men in a Boat”. He also wrote many short stories and essays that have all the wit, whimsy, and wisdom of his more famous work. The essays in this volume were published together with “The Diary of a Pilgrimage” in 1891. They are: “Evergreens”, “Clocks”, “Tea-Kettles”, “A Pathetic Story”, “The New Utopia”, and “Dreams”.

wonderful collection.

Jerome K Jerome is as always a master. he makes you laugh while making you think. the stories i listed on the cover.
evergreen: an ode to steadfast people, with interesting insights into training bulldods😂
clocks: on the quirks of such instruments, (if you think the topic is outdated I'll have you know our two cell phones tell a slightly different times!)
tea kettles: yep, j can make this into an interesting topic!
a pathetic story: a writer's problems writing such.
a new utopia: a must read for anyone dabbling with socialistic notions, a scarier story than all the ghost stories.
dreams: legs are disturbing people from getting to their seats in the theater so why not check them in, and other uninteresting nightly experiences.😂🤣😅
