About this audiobook
Jerome K. Jerome
Jerome Klapka Jerome was born in 1859 and was brought up in London. He started work as a railway clerk at fourteen, and later was employed as a schoolmaster, actor and journalist. He published two volumes of comic essays and in 1889 Three Men in a Boat. This was an instant success. His new-found wealth enabled him to become one of the founders of The Idler, a humorous magazine which published pieces by W W Jacobs, Bret Harte, Mark Twain and others. In 1900 he wrote a sequel, Three Men on the Bummel, which follows the adventures of the three protagonists on a walking tour through Germany. Jerome married in 1888 and had a daughter. He served as an ambulance driver on the Western Front during the First World War and died in 1927.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5This book did not appeal to my personal sense of humor. Maybe it is just a generational thing. It’s not offensive or anything like that. In fact, it’s utterly inoffensive. Just old-fashioned and narrowly targeted to the author’s place and time and peculiar social milieu: elderly British dudes of 6 or 8 decades ago.
