The Other Jerome K Jerome
Jerome K Jerome is without doubt best known today for his comic masterpiece Three Men in a Boat. More than a century after its first publication it is still making people laugh. But Jerome was very much more than a one-book wonder, writing plays, essays, short stories, sketches and other novels. The Other Jerome K Jerome is, in effect, a jerome 'reader', providing a carefully chosen selection from his other works demonstrative of the variety and brilliance of his writing. Including excerpts from On the Stage-and Off, The Passing of the Third Floor Back and Diary of a Pilgrimate, amongst others, and with an introduction by Martin Green, this is an ideal companion for fans of 'Three Men in a Boat' who want to find out more about is author's other works.
Three Men on the Bummel
Three Men on the Bummel is the sequel to Three Men in a Boat, which Jerome K. Jerome originally wrote as a travel guide. As the humorous anecdotes took over the story, it eventually turned into a masterpiece of comedy. This novel reprises the same three characters as they explore the Black Forest in Germany.
My Life and Times
This early work by Jerome K. Jerome was originally published in 1926 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'My Life and Times' is the autobiography of this humorous author of fiction and essays. Jerome Klapka Jerome was born in Walsall, England in 1859. Both his parents died while he was in his early teens, and he was forced to quit school to support himself. In 1889, Jerome published his most successful and best-remembered work, 'Three Men in a Boat'. Featuring himself and two of his friends encountering humorous situations while floating down the Thames in a small boat, the book was an instant success, and has never been out of print. In fact, its popularity was such that the number of registered Thames boats went up fifty percent in the year following its publication.
Sketches in Lavender, Blue and Green
The fault that most people will find with this story is that it is unconvincing. Its scheme is improbable, its atmosphere artificial. To confess that the thing really happened--not as I am about to set it down, for the pen of the professional writer cannot but adorn and embroider, even to the detriment of his material--is, I am well aware, only an aggravation of my offence, for the facts of life are the impossibilities of fiction.
Below the Fairy City
