Trei intr-o barca

De Jerome K. Jerome

O excursie de-a lungul Tamisei, de la Londra la Oxford, poate fi extrem de palpitanta cand trei prieteni, dornici de schimbare, pleaca in concediu, dar nu singuri, ci cu Montmorency, si nu pe jos sau cu automobilul, ci in barca. O barca destul de mare in care sa incapa toti, si bagajele lor, si alimentele, si banjoul, si tigaia, si Montmorecy, si prietenii lui... Nu! Prietenii lui Montmorency, nu! De ce? Ei, asta-i acu'! Doar Montmorency.

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.
