Jerome K Jerome

'Three Men in a Boat' relates the adventures and mishaps of three late-Victorian gentlemen and a dog on holiday on the Thames. With its picaresque digressions and asides, Jerome depicts the group's attempts to keep themselves afloat and cope with the English weather.

While it is beyond doubt that Jerome K. Jerome is most well known for his comic masterpiece 'Three Men in a Boat', his other literary achievements are largely unknown. Journalist, playwright and author, a wealth of his writing has remained just beyond the public gaze. 'Diary of a Pilgrimage' is one such work.
