Three Men in a Boat

Ocena książki

Więcej o książce

A comic masterpiece, Jerome K. Jerome's Three Men in a Boat follows J. and his friends George and Harris as they embark on a boating trip up the Thames, seeking a break from their hypochondriacal tendencies and mundane lives. However, their journey is fraught with unexpected troubles, including issues with tow-ropes, unpredictable weather, and the antics of J.'s mischievous fox-terrier, Montmorency. The novel, first published in 1889, became an instant success, capturing the spirit of its time with its blend of benign escapism, humorous authorial digressions, and a vivid portrayal of the late-Victorian 'clerking classes.' Through their misadventures, Jerome hilariously reflects on the changing world of Victorian England, marked by the emergence of mass culture, tabloid journalism, and new leisure activities like daytripping and bicycling.
