Night Watches by W. W. Jacobs — Review

"Night Watches" is a funy and easy-to-read story about a married couple living on a boat. The wife is always criticizing her lazy husband, the captain. One night, she hears a noise and forces her scared husband to go outside in the dark to check for thieves. 

The story shows the silly but relatable arguments between a husband and wife, where the man tries to avoid trouble but always ends up in a worse situation because of his wife's nagging.


Here is the link to the text of the story:
