Perihal e-buku ini

This volume contains Jerome Klapka Jerome's 1919 novel, "All Roads Lead to Calvary". The story revolves around a fisherman MP who gives up his career and mistress when his lowly wife consumes poison. An intriguing and masterful piece of literature, "All Roads Lead to Calvary" is a must-read for fans of Jerome's work, and it would make for a great addition to any collection. Jerome Klapka Jerome (1859 - 1927) was an English writer and humourist. He is most famous for his comic travelogue "Three Men in a Boat" (1889). Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.

Perihal pengarang

Jerome K. Jerome was born in Walsall, Staffordshire, England on May 2, 1859. He grew up in London and had to leave school at the age of 14 because of his parents' death. Afterwards, he worked as a clerk, an actor, a journalist, and a school teacher. In 1885, he published his first book On the Stage - and Off: The Brief Career of a Would-Be Actor. This was followed by numerous plays, books, and magazine articles including Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, Second Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, Three Men in a Boat, and Three Men on the Bummel. He founded the weekly magazine To-Day in 1893 and edited it and a monthly magazine called The Idler until 1898. He also worked as a lecturer. During World War I, he enlisted in the French army as an ambulance driver because he was rejected for active service in his own country. He published his autobiography My Life and Times in 1926. He suffered a paralytic stroke and a cerebral hemorrhage and died on June 14, 1927.
