Clocks

Focusing on the humorous role clocks play in everyday life, this essay by Jerome K. Jerome offers a lighthearted reflection on timekeeping. Jerome, who faced personal hardships after losing his parents in his teens, gained fame with his 1889 work, "Three Men in a Boat," which humorously chronicles his adventures with friends on the Thames. His writing style and wit have ensured his works remain popular, with "Clocks" serving as a delightful exploration of the quirks of time and its impact on daily life.
