Publisher's Synopsis

""Told After Supper"" is a collection of humorous and satirical short stories written by Jerome K. Jerome. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part containing stories that are meant to be read aloud after dinner, and the second part containing stories that are meant to be read alone. The stories cover a range of topics, from ghosts and supernatural beings to social commentary on Victorian society. Each story is filled with wit and humor, and often ends with a surprising twist. The book is a classic example of Victorian-era humor and remains popular to this day.(Do not ask me how it is that I recollect his own exact words-- whether I took them down in shorthand at the time, or whether he had the story written out, and handed me the MS. afterwards for publication in this book, because I should not tell you if you did. It is a trade secret.)This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
