Jerome K Jerome - Three Men In A Boat - Opening
from Just Reads · host Ed Parnell
Three Men in a Boat, published in 1889, is a humorous novel by English writer Jerome K. Jerome describing a two-week boating holiday on the Thames from Kingston upon Thames to Oxford and back to Kingston. The book was initially intended to be a serious travel guide, with accounts of local history along the route, but the humorous elements took over to the point where the serious and somewhat sentimental passages seem a distraction from the comic novel.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/just-reads--6173738/support.Please click 'like' and Subcribe and all the good stuff.
