Description

All Roads Lead to Calvary by Jerome K. Jerome follows Joan Allway, an ambitious young woman determined to build a career in journalism while questioning faith, morality, and society’s expectations. Exploring London’s historic churches and meeting people shaped by hardship and belief, she reflects on justice, purpose, and human suffering. The novel blends social criticism with spiritual and emotional self-discovery in a changing modern world.

Author

Jerome K. Jerome (1859–1927) made English humour sound like a friend talking — ironic, lazy, and suddenly exact about human folly. Three Men in a Boat is his masterpiece: a mock-epic of river travel in which packing, weather, and wounded dignity become high adventure. Before and after it he wrote essays and sequels that celebrate idleness as a mild philosophy — Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow chief among them.
