Více o knize

The narrative explores themes of marital fidelity and sexual corruption through the character of Dick Selwyn, who becomes infatuated with his wife's young cousin, Jessie. The story employs a powerful metaphor of a neglected, weed-infested garden to illustrate the connection between mental and physical decay, highlighting the struggles inherent in maintaining loyalty and integrity within marriage. This significant shift from humor to a darker tone marks a notable evolution in Jerome K. Jerome's writing.
