Molti anni fa ¿ ero ancora molto piccino ¿ abitavamo in una gran casa d¿una strada lunga, dritta e buia dell¿estremità orientale di Londra. Di giorno era rumorosa e affollata: ma di sera placida e solitaria. I fanali a gas, pochi e radi, avevano piuttosto il carattere di fari che di lampioni, e la guardia col passo grave e pesante della sua lunga ronda, pareva che s¿avvicinasse sempre più o si dileguasse, tranne nei brevi momenti in cui si fermava a far stridere una finestra o una porta, o a illuminare con la lanterna qualche vicolo buio che conduceva verso il fiume.

Plongez-vous dans les pages enchanteresses de "Trois hommes dans un bateau, sans parler du chien" et laissez-vous entraîner dans une aventure aussi hilarante qu'inoubliable. Écrit par le maître de l'humour britannique, Jerome K. Jerome, ce livre est un véritable chef-d'¿uvre de la littérature comique.Suivez les péripéties de trois amis excentriques - Jérôme, George et Harris - qui décident de s'embarquer dans une escapade fluviale à bord d'une barque sur la Tamise. Leur objectif ? Fuir la morosité du quotidien et s'évader vers de nouveaux horizons, naviguant au gré des eaux sereines de la rivière. Mais l'aventure ne serait pas complète sans l'ajout d'un membre de la famille bien particulier : Montmorency, leur espiègle et indomptable chien. Avec son comportement frondeur et ses facéties inattendues, Montmorency est sans aucun doute la cerise sur le gâteau de cette odyssée loufoque. Le trio improbable est confronté à une série de situations délirantes et de mésaventures rocambolesques tout au long de leur voyage. Des quiproquos hilarants, des incompréhensions épiques et des rencontres surprenantes ponctuent leur périple, donnant lieu à des scènes cocasses qui feront rire le lecteur à gorge déployée.Cependant, derrière l'éclat de rire et la légèreté apparente, "Trois hommes dans un bateau" est aussi un voyage introspectif. Les personnages nous livrent leurs pensées sur la vie, l'amitié, les absurdités du monde et le sens de l'existence. Entre deux éclats de rire, les mots de Jerome K. Jerome résonnent d'une sagesse subtile, faisant de ce livre une véritable réflexion sur l'humaine condition. Naviguant entre les moments de franche rigolade et les contemplations surréalistes, cette histoire mélange astucieusement l'humour, l'esprit et une pointe d'absurdité. "Trois hommes dans un bateau, sans parler du chien" est un voyage littéraire jubilatoire qui ne manquera pas de charmer les lecteurs de tous âges et de toutes nationalités.Préparez-vous à être entraîné dans un tourbillon d'aventures, de rires et de joies aux côtés de trois compagnons atypiques et de leur fidèle acolyte canin. Vous ressortirez de cette lecture avec un sourire aux lèvres et un sentiment profond que les amis les plus improbables peuvent vivre les aventures les plus inoubliables.

Tres hombres delicados. ¿El estado de salud de Jorge y Harris. ¿Una víctima de ciento siete graves enfermedades. ¿Excelentes prescripciones facultativas. ¿Cura para las afecciones del hígado en los niños. ¿Llegamos al convencimiento de que sufrimos un exceso de trabajo y necesitamos descanso. ¿Ocho días sobre las procelosas aguas del mar(?). ¿Jorge sugiere el río. ¿ Montmorency presenta una objeción. ¿La moción original aprobada por mayoría de tres contra uno.Nosotros cuatro, Jorge, Guillermo, Samuel Harris, yo y Montmorency, estábamos sentados en mi cuarto fumando y charlado sobre nuestra triste situación ¿ claro está que eso se refería a nuestro estado de salud.¿ Nos sentíamos tan aplanados, tan deprimidos física y moralmente, que ya comenzábamos a preocuparnos. Harris dijo que a menudo le daban unos vahídos tan fuertes que no se daba cuenta de lo que hacía; Jorge añadió que también sufría de fuertes vértigos y tampoco se daba cuenta de sus acciones. En cuanto a mí, sólo se trataba del hígado, que no funcionaba bien; sí, estaba seguro que era cuestión del hígado, pues acababa de leer un prospecto de unas pastillas en el cual se detallaban los diversos síntomas de este trastorno, con lo que se permitía a cualquiera darse cuenta de las anomalías de su hígado, y yo ¿ ¡pobre de mí!¿ experimentaba todos esos síntomas.

THREE MAN IN A BOAT:- is a humorous account by English writer Jerome K. Jerome and was published in 1889. This is an account of Jerome?s two-week boating holiday on the River Thames from Kingston upon Thames to Oxford and back to Kingston. The most amazing part of this book is that it contains jokes which are fresh and witty even today for the modern readers. The three men in the book are real ones and based on Jerome himself (the narrator Jerome K. Jerome) and two real-life friends, George Wingrave and Carl Hentschel with whom Jerome often took boating trips. There is also the dog, Montmorency, who is fictional but, contains as an essential element.The book?s original purpose was intended to be a travelogue that author as narrator describes while passing through various landmarks, villages and historical places. However, author frequently digresses into humorous anecdotes. The most frequent topics of anecdotes are river pastimes such as fishing and boating and the difficulties they present to the three men on previous boating trips.

Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog), published in 1889, is a humorous account by English writer Jerome K. Jerome of 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 to the comic novel. One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers - the jokes have been praised as fresh and witty. The three men are based on Jerome himself (the narrator Jerome K. Jerome) and two real-life friends, George Wingrave (who would become a senior manager at Barclays Bank) and Carl Hentschel (the founder of a London printing business, called Harris in the book), with whom Jerome 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.
