Sobre este artículo
New York: Henry Holt & Co, 1890. 1st USA. h/b. Very good, 1st USA edition (4 years after UK 1st), no d/j, original brown cloth binding, gilt titling on upper cover/spine, text block firm, pages crisp and yellowed, occasional pencil underlining.. 12mo (190 x 130 / 7_"" x 5""). Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, published in 1886 in London, is a collection of humorous essays by Jerome K. Jerome. It was the authorÕs second published book and it helped establish him as a leading English humorist. While widely considered one of JeromeÕs better works, and in spite of using the same style as Three Men in a Boat, it was never as popular as the latter. A second ""Idle Thoughts"" book, The Second Thoughts of An Idle Fellow, was published in 1898. The essays had previously appeared in Home Chimes, the same magazine that later serialised Jerome's Three Men in a Boat.
