« Cette absence de moutarde jeta un froid sur le bateau. L'existence nous paraissait vide et terne » : quand trois gentlemen anglais, totalement dénués de bon sens, décident d'entreprendre une croisière sur la Tamise, un simple voyage devient une épopée. Pour Jerome, George, Harris, et Montmorency, le fox-terrier irritable et grognon, monter une tente est un casse-tête, trouver l'ouvre-boîtes, un effort titanesque, et survivre sans « cup of tea » totalement insensé. De cette joyeuse bande, loufoque et désopilante, la Tamise se souviendra longtemps.
Né en 1859, Jerome K. Jerome a été successivement employé des chemins de fer, journaliste, acteur et instituteur avant de se consacrer à l'écriture. Il a connu un immense succès public avec Trois hommes dans un bateau (sans oublier le chien).
« Un classique de l'humour victorien. »

Trois hommes dans un bateau (sans parler du chien)
Jerome K. Jerome
- Flammarion
- GF

- 9782081374232
Trois petits employés de bureau, amateurs de bistros, tire-au-flanc et hypocondriaques, entreprennent, pour prendre l'air, de remonter en canot la Tamise. Munis notamment d'un banjo et d'une poêle à frire, et accompagnés d'un fox-terrier nommé Montmorency, les voilà engagés dans le plus saugrenu des périples... Au récit hilarant de cette folle équipée s'entremêlent de savoureuses digressions sur les mérites comparés d'un voyage avec ou sans fromage dans ses valises, la vaste fumisterie des bulletins météorologiques, l'inconvénient de dormir sous le même toit qu'un couple d'amoureux, ou encore l'effet démoralisant de l'air fluvial...Trois Hommes dans un bateau, qui connut dès sa parution en 1889 un succès phénoménal, est un classique de l'humour anglais.

La paresse a toujours été mon point fort. Je n'ai aucun mérite : c'est un don.
Jerome K. Jerome
« Penser, soit, mais en passant, sans se presser. L'oisif accueille la pensée comme certaines branches l'oiseau : il veut bien être perchoir mais non point nid. De même qu'il existe une authentique philosophie de comptoir, il existe une pensée de fauteuil. L'oisif aime à discourir des sujets les plus triviaux - il trouvera toujours le moyen, au détour d'une apparente banalité, de faire entendre les saignements de son coeur. »

`Three Men in a Boat' (1889) is the bestselling comic masterpiece by English writer, humourist, and playwright Jerome K. Jerome.
It follows the author and his two companions as they try to escape busy Victorian London on a two-week boating holiday along the River Thames, from Kingston to Oxford and back.
Initially intended as a serious travel guide, the comical mishaps and misfortunes that happen along the way, turned the book into a satirical gem that perfectly captured the escapism of Victorian England.
From pineapple chunks to tow-ropes, tents, and the pointlessness of weather forecasts, Jerome K Jerome's witticisms and social commentary remain as funny and relevant today.
The novel has been adapted for TV and film on many occasions, including a recreation of the trip by the BBC, starring comedians Griff Rhys Jones, Dara Ó Briain, and Rory McGrath.
Jerome K. Jerome (1859 -1927) was an English novelist, humourist and playwright, best known for his hugely successful comic masterpiece `Three Men in a Boat' (1889), which was inspired by his honeymoon on the river Thames.

Jerome wrote eight novels, fifteen collections of short stories and sketches, two autobiographical works, and more than thirty plays.
His works include the essay collections `Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow' (1886) and `Second Thoughts of an Idle Fellow'. The novel `Three Men on the Bummel', a sequel to ´Three Men in a Boat´, and the play `The Passing of the Third Floor Back' (1908). -

Three Men in a Boat, published in 1889, is a humorous account by Jerome K. Jerome. It is a story of three men, accompanied by a dog, as they travel in a boat up the River Thames. 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. The three men are based on Jerome himself (the narrator J.) and two real-life friends, George and Carl with whom he often took boating trips. The dog, Montmorency, is entirely fictional.
Because of the overwhelming success of Three Men in a Boat, Jerome later published a sequel, about a cycling tour in Germany, titled Three Men on the Bummel. Three Men on the Bummel (also known as Three Men on Wheels) was published in 1900, eleven years after his most famous work, Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog). The sequel brings back the three companions who figured in Three Men in a Boat, this time on a bicycle tour through the German Black Forest.
Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, published in 1886, is a collection of humorous essays by Jerome K. Jerome. It was the author's second published book and it helped to establish him as a leading English humorist. While widely considered one of Jerome's better works, and in spite of using the same style as Three Men in a Boat, it was never as popular as the latter.

Tre gentiluomini ipocondriaci sentono il bisogno di una vera e propria vacanza e, non trovandosi ispirati né dal mare né dalla campagna, decidono per una gita in barca sul Tamigi con il loro folle fox terrier Montmorency. Ma, ahimè, la loro spedizione esplorativa non va esattamente come previsto... Una disavventura navale selvaggia e strampalata ambientata nell'Inghilterra vittoriana, il bestseller di Jerome K. Jerome "Tre uomini in barca" è ad oggi ancora fresco e spassoso come lo era nel 1889.
Jerome K. Jerome (1859-1927) è stato uno scrittore, drammaturgo e umorista inglese. È noto soprattutto per il suo capolavoro comico "Tre uomini in barca" (1889). -
Fanny est une danseuse et chanteuse ainsi qu'une actrice à la carrière compromise, qui a rencontré un richissime Lord anglais. Il est doux et affectueux, et pour le séduire elle enjolive son milieu d'origine. L'amour triomphe sous les coups du mensonge et le mariage concrétise ses rêves et la sauve de l'échec.
Mais à son arrivée au château de son époux, Fanny se retrouve dans une situation délicate : les vingt-trois domestiques du Lord sont tous de la famille de Fanny. Pire ! La voilà de retour auprès de son oncle, le maître d'hôtel, qu'elle a fui des années auparavant.
Jerome K. Jerome, réputé pour ses romans comiques, offre ici une satire des plus sérieuses. Elle dévoile et condamne une société de « caste » que même l'amour ne peut briser.
Jerome K. Jerome (1859-1927) est un écrivain humoriste britannique connu pour son oeuvre « Trois hommes dans un bateau » 1889. Dès son plus jeune âge, Jerome déteste l'école, et il en fera la critique dans ses romans. Il la quitte à quatorze ans pour subvenir à ses propres besoins car ses parents meurent dès ses treize ans. Renonçant à ses ambitions littéraires, il ramasse le charbon le long des voies de chemin de fer. Mais Jerome s'acharne, et tandis qu'il se ménage du temps pour écrire, il devient journaliste, acteur puis instituteur. Ses rêves se concrétisent en 1886 avec « Les Pensées paresseuses d'un paresseux », son premier succès, puis en 1889 avec « Trois hommes dans un bateau » qui propulse sa carrière littéraire. -
Set in a drawing-room in London's Russell Square in 1911, `The Master of Mrs. Chilvers: An Improbable Comedy' is a fictional stage play full of wit and warmth, which addresses the issue of women's rights in Edwardian England. As the play progresses, and Mrs. Chilvers joins the timely cause of women's suffrage, her seemingly sudden commitment to suffragette radicalism shocks her husband and has a large effect on the rest of her upper class family. The four act play by author and playwright Jerome K Jerome, whose other works include 'Three Men in a Boat' and `The Observations of Henry', begins with a detailed introduction to the play with insightfully personal character descriptions. With whiffs of classic Oscar Wilde and a clear preamble for the 2015 film `Suffragette', starring Carey Mulligan and Meryl Streep, Jerome takes on the genre of family drama and class meets equality, feminism and women's liberation in a touching, humorous and forward-thinking way. It was first performed at The Royalty Theatre, London, on April 26th, 1911, starring actors Mary Rorke as Lady Mogton and Lena Ashwell as Annys Chilvers.
Jerome Klapka Jerome (1859-1927) was born in Walsall, in northern Great Britain, on 2nd May 1859. Orphaned as a teenager, he was forced to leave education at just 14 years old to start working. After jobs as an actor, clerk and a teacher, Jerome published his first book in 1885 based upon is own experiences - `On the Stage and Off: The Brief Career of a Would-Be Actor'. Stage plays, books and journalism articles followed suit, including his most successful book - an autobiographical story entitled 'Three Men in a Boat'. Other works include `Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow', `Second Thoughts of an Idle Fellow', 'The Observations of Henry' and `Three Men on the Bummel'. Jerome founded the weekly magazine `To-Day' in 1893 and edited another magazine named `The Idler' until 1898, whilst also working as a lecturer and writer in England. During World War 1, he wasn't accepted for active service in the UK's army so instead enlisted as an ambulance driver in the French army. He died on 14th June 1927 after suffering a stroke. -

`This is the story, among others, of Henry the waiter-or, as he now prefers to call himself, Henri-told to me in the long dining-room of the Riffel Alp Hotel, where I once stayed for a melancholy week "between seasons".' The collection of short stories in The Observations of Henry are a witty and wondrous insight into the life and times of 19th century England, as told by an enigmatic waiter, Henry (Henri). An observer of life, and offering counsel to his various customers' romantic entanglements, dramas and career carry-ons, the charming tales from a unique hotelier's perspective is an uplifting, funny and occasionally shocking set of tit-bits from some of the more memorable characters which Henry has met in his work. Aided by comic assailants, Kipper and Carrot, Jerome K. Jerome sets the perfect scene for scandal, humour and charismatic capers. Originally published in 1901, the warm and witty mini sagas will appeal to any reader who is a fan of Roald Dahl, Oscar Wilde and Mark Twain. Sometimes dark, often light and occasionally highly unexpected, The Observations of Henry is charming, insightful and extremely funny - people watching at its very best.

"There are two kinds of clocks. There is the clock that is always wrong, and that knows it is wrong, and glories in it; and there is the clock that is always right-except when you rely upon it, and then it is more wrong than you would think a clock could be in a civilized country." - Jerome K. Jerome, `Clocks'.
In Jerome K. Jerome's short, humorous essay, `Clocks', the writer uses observational comedy - that will be enjoyed by fans of stand-up comedians or shows like `Friday Night Dinner' - to explore the role of clocks in his life as a writer.
The essay `Clocks' will delight anyone looking for a short, fun, and thought-provoking read.

Three Men In A Boat To Say Nothing Of The Dog (Unabridged)
Jerome K. Jerome
- Slingshot Books LLC
- 9 Août 2022
- 9798822556010
A humorous account by English writer Jerome K. Jerome of a boating holiday on the Thames between Kingston and Oxford. The three men are based on Jerome himself and two real-life friends, George Wingrave and Carl Hentschel , with whom he often took boating trips. The dog, Montmorency, is entirely fictional but, "as Jerome admits, developed out of that area of inner consciousness which, in all Englishmen, contains an element of the dog." The trip is a typical boating holiday of the time in a Thames camping skiff. This was just after commercial boat traffic on the Upper Thames had died out, replaced by the 1880s craze for boating as a leisure activity. - Summary by Wikipedia
