Description
"We agree that we are overworked, and need a rest - A week on the rolling deep? - George suggests the river -"
And with the co-operation of several hampers of food and a covered boat, the three men (not forgetting the dog) set out on a hilarious voyage of mishaps up the Thames. When not falling in the river and getting lost in Hampton Court Maze, Jerome K. Jerome finds time to express his ideas on the world around - many of which have acquired a deeper fascination since the day at the end of the 19th century when this excursion was so lightly undertaken.

Just could not get into this book. I am sure some people might find it funny.
January 28th 2026
I tried to give this book a chance but it was so boring. There is a lot of unnecessary descriptions that I can do without. And the language is... Difficult, it is so old I can't enjoy the story with this kind of language. I stopped at chapter 7 skimmed through the other chapters and there was a lot of rambling about places and sceneries...etc so I had to stop here. Maybe it is good for academic reading but not for fun.
