Paul Kelver

Paul Kelver is a novel written by Jerome K. Jerome, first published in 1902. The story follows the life of the eponymous protagonist, Paul Kelver, from his childhood to his adulthood. Kelver is born into a family of actors and performers, and he too becomes a successful actor. However, his personal life is plagued with problems, including a failed marriage and a strained relationship with his son. The novel is written in a semi-autobiographical style, with many of the events and characters based on Jerome's own life. The book is a poignant exploration of the human condition, examining themes such as love, loss, and the search for meaning in life. It is a timeless classic that continues to be enjoyed by readers to this day.Fate intended me for a singularly fortunate man.

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.
