Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow e-bok

“It is impossible to enjoy idling thoroughly unless one has plenty of work to do. There is no fun in doing nothing when you have nothing to do. Wasting time is merely an occupation then, and a most exhausting one. Idleness, like kisses, to be sweet must be stolen.” In a series of charming essays, an unhurried mind wanders through the everyday trials and small pleasures of life. From the peculiarities of love and weather to the gentle art of procrastination, Jerome K. Jerome explores the ordinary with a dry wit and disarming honesty that remain as fresh today as when first published in 1886. JEROME K. JEROME [1859–1927] was an English novelist and essayist who left his mark on literary history with Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog) [1889], the novel about a hilarious boating holiday along the Thames.
