My toothbrush is a thing that makes my life a misery



My toothbrush is a thing that makes my life a misery.”


Who is the speaker? Describe how the tooth-brush makes his life a misery.

 

Answer: The speaker is Jerome Klapka Jerome, the writer of the humorous essay, “THREE MEN IN A BOAT” He was always troubled with his tooth-brush while traveling. He could never remember whether he had packed it or not. He dreamed that he had not packed it and woke up in cold perspiration. Then he searched for it. In the morning he packed it before using it. Then he had to unpack and bring it out. When he had repacked the bag he again forgot to put it inside. So he had to wrap it up in his handler-chief and carry it to the railway station in this manner. Thus his tooth-the brush makes his

life a misery.
