One or two friends to whom I showed these papers in MS. having observed that they were not half bad, and some of my relations having promised to buy the book if it ever came out, I feel I have no right to longer delay its issue. But for this, as one may say, public demand, I perhaps should not have ventured to offer these mere "idle thoughts" of mine as mental food for the English-speaking peoples of the earth. What readers ask nowadays in a book is that it should improve, instruct, and elevate. This book wouldn't elevate a cow. I cannot conscientiously recommend it for any useful purposes whatever. All I can suggest is that when you get tired of reading "the best hundred books," you may take this up for half an hour. It will be a change.

Paul Kelver is a novel by Jerome K. Jerome, first published in 1902. The story follows the life of Paul Kelver, a successful writer who has become disillusioned with fame and fortune. Kelver reflects on his life, from his humble beginnings to his rise to fame, and the personal sacrifices he has made along the way. The novel is a character study of a man who has achieved everything he ever wanted, but is still searching for something more meaningful in life. Jerome's writing style is witty and insightful, and he uses Kelver's story to explore themes such as the nature of success, the pursuit of happiness, and the price of fame. Overall, Paul Kelver is a thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the human condition.Fate intended me for a singularly fortunate man. Properly, I ought to have been born in June, which being, as is well known, the luckiest month in all the year for such events, should, by thoughtful parents, be more generally selected. How it was I came to be born in May, which is, on the other hand, of all the twelve the most unlucky, as I have proved, I leave to those more conversant with the subject to explain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

"Now, which would you advise, dear? You see, with the red I shan't be able to wear my magenta hat." "Well then, why not have the grey?" "Yes-yes, I think the grey will be MORE useful." "It's a good material." "Yes, and it's a PRETTY grey. You know what I mean, dear; not a COMMON grey. Of course grey is always an UNINTERESTING colour." "Its quiet." "And then again, what I feel about the red is that it is so warm-looking. Red makes you FEEL warm even when you're NOT warm. You know what I mean, dear!" "Well then, why not have the red? It suits you-red." "No; do you really think so?" "Well, when you've got a colour, I mean, of course!" "Yes, that is the drawback to red. No, I think, on the whole, the grey is SAFER." "Then you will take the grey, madam?" "Yes, I think I'd better; don't you, dear?" "I like it myself very much.

Classics for Your Collection: goo.gl/U80LCr --------- You Are in for a Humor Treat This book Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog) was an instant hit when it was first published in 1889, with its benign escapism, authorial discursions, Victorian humor, it hilariously captured the spirit of its age. This story was inspired by Jerome's honeymoon and based on himself and two real-life friends One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers - the jokes seem fresh and witty even today. The story (or rather the fun cruise) begins with George Wingrave, Harris (Carl Hentschel in real life), and Jerome (the author himself and who is always referred to as "J."), decide on a leisurely boat trip up the River Thames, from Kingston upon Thames to Oxford and back to Kingston. They are also accompanied by Jerome's dog, a fox terrier, called Montmorency. They meet one evening and begin discussing their busy lives and how they feel stressed and overworked. So, they take this trip to London in a boat on Thames, as craze for boating as a leisure activity was rampant during the 1880s. They encounter a series of amusing, poignant and strange happenings along the river. The book holds immense appeal for readers of all ages and is one that evokes the same entertainment and amusement even after several readings. Jerome is also known for the books Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow and Three Men on the Bummel the sequel to Three Men in a Boat. Trivia: 1. The most funny thing about the book was that Three Men in a Boat was originally meant to be a serious piece of travel writing, a travelogue, full of local flavors, legends and folklore about England's mighty river. As it turned out, somewhere along the way, the author Jerome found himself catapulted into creating a fun-filled, laughter-evoking comic mis-adventure! 2. The dog, Montmorency, is entirely fictional, but "as Jerome admits, developed out of that area of inner consciousness which, in all Englishmen, contains an element of the dog." 3. The novel is narrated by J. He is a young, single middle-class man living in London, much like the author himself at the time of the publication of the book, and the initial J is possibly meant to suggest that he stands in for Jerome. 4. The book is among the 100 greatest novels of all time. The Places You'll come across in the book: London: The largest city in England and the home of the three men who embark on the boat trip. Thames River One of the major rivers in England, the Thames flows down through Oxford to London. It is on the Thames that the men take their boat trip. Kingston The starting point of the journey. Hampton A town near the beginning of the trip where boating is popular and the residents wear the most flashy boating costumes. Kempton Park Where Harris and J stop for lunch the first day, under some willows. Waterloo Station The large railroad station where Harris and J catch the train to Kingston. Sunbury Lock One of the locks Harris and J pass through on the first afternoon of rowing. Walton A quaint riverside town on the way to Weybridge. Scroll Up and Grab Your Copy! Also by Jerome J.

He is always cheerful and always good. We never knew a bad Irishman on the stage. Sometimes a stage Irishman seems to be a bad man--such as the "agent" or the "informer"--but in these cases it invariably turns out in the end that this man was all along a Scotchman, and thus what had been a mystery becomes clear and explicable.
