Overview
"Why do the heroines in romances all have wide, low foreheads?"Once introduced to this and a dozen other absurd and fascinating questions, we find ourselves dizzily plunged into a world long gone but well worth revisiting -- especially when our guide is Jerome K. Jerome.
Anyone who has gone boating with the rascally dog Montmorency in Three Men in a Boat will find generous helpings of Jerome's delightful insights into men, women, society, and even writing, in Idle Ideas in 1905. His jovial rapier still stabs to the heart, over a century later.
