Description

Our Mr. Wrenn, the Romantic Adventures of a Gentle Man is a Fiction Adventure Book. This book says that "At thirty-four Mr. Wrenn was the sales-entry clerk of the Souvenir Company. He was always bending over bills and columns of figures at a desk behind the stock-room. He was a meek little bachelor--a person of inconspicuous blue ready-made suits, and a small unsuccessful mustache". Mr. Wrenn, however has a rich inner life embellished by his own imagination. When he comes into a modest inheritance, he feels he ought to learn to get out and wander a bit, and then his education begins. He finds life more "interesting", perhaps than he had "imagined"…

  • Three cheers for "The Job"!

    As always, Sinclair Lewis, delights and rivets the attention with his instinctive "every man" approach to twentieth century business, and those who took part in it. Though the story takes place more than a hundred years ago it still feels fresh and relevant. The characters are real and their human qualities stand out in ways that are fascinating and easy to identify with. Another home run for Mr. Lewis, in a long line!
