For Russian readers, the name of Jerome K. Jerome is the embodiment of English humor and is inextricably linked with the brilliant novel Three Men in a Boat, translated into dozens of languages and filmed many times. Meanwhile, the writer's work includes other novels, plays, humorous essays and short stories, which sometimes undeservedly remain in the shadow of his famous masterpiece. This edition presents Jerome's stories, most of which are published in new translations; initially, these works were published in London literary magazines, and were then published as separate collections: Stories Told After Dinner (1891), John Ingerfield and Other Stories (1894), Studies in Lavender, Blue and Green (1897). Along with the hilariously funny stories, in which the sparkling author of the novel "Three Men in a Boat" can easily be recognized, there are also those that open up new facets in the writer's work. According to the author, they were written "not to cause laughter" and are addressed to the secrets of the subconscious and the paradoxes of the human soul, our hidden desires and fears, as well as to that fine line that separates us from the world of inexplicable and strange phenomena.
