Jerome K. Jerome
Translated by Jacinto María, 1887- Mustieles
A humorous novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows three friends—George, Harris, and the narrator—as they embark on a boating trip down the River Thames to alleviate their ailments and frustrations. Their adventures explore themes of friendship, leisure, and the comic misadventures that arise from their preparations and expectations for the journey. The opening of the novel introduces the main characters, who are all convinced that they suffer from various ailments, prompting George to propose an escape to the river for rest. Their conversation is filled with comical exaggerations of their supposed maladies and illustrates their contrasting personalities. As they discuss their plans, including the practicalities of packing and managing supplies, the scene is set for both their physical journey and the humorous trials they will inevitably face together. This initial setup establishes the tone of playful satire and observational humor that characterizes the rest of the book.
