H. G. Wells 
The History of Mr. Polly (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) 

Miles away from the fabulous science fiction for which Wells is best known, this comic romp unspools the unlikely story of a timid, financially strapped, unhappily married shopkeeper whose plan to do away with himself fails miserably—and in fact inspires him to do something adventurous with his life. Wells himself called this “one of my good books.”
