The Other Jerome K Jerome

by Martin Green (Editor), JeromeK.Jerome (Author)

Synopsis

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 Pilgrimage", 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 its author's other works.
