For the first time, 'Three Men in a Boat, To Say Nothing of the Dog' was published in England in 1889 and to this day remains an unmatched example of English humor. Jerome Klapka Jerome wrote a hilariously funny story of three friends, bored and suffering from imaginary illnesses, floating down the Thames, inspired by his own honeymoon journey on a small boat. At that time, the unrealistic characters of Conan Doyle, Kipling, and Stevenson were 'in fashion', but the ordinary and in some ways even mundane friends J., George, and Harris became real heroes for English readers. The success was resounding.
To this day, the book has not only been translated into almost all world languages - it has been repeatedly adapted for film, stage, television, and radio. The novel has influenced many humorists and satirists and has also contributed to the development of river tourism.
The sequel to the novel - 'Three Men on the Bummel' about an overseas cycling tour - is in the collection.
