Idle Ideas in 1905

K. Jerome
Author's portrait: K. Jerome

The collection explores the intersection of art and everyday life through a series of vignettes that examine the human condition. It delves into themes of alienation, social isolation, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. The narrative voice is detached and observational, often blurring the lines between reality and fantasy.
