Rezension zu „Three Men in a Boat “
"Wonderfully fresh and funny, and among examples of Victorian humour I would place it high in the pantheon, right up there with The Importance of Being Earnest and The Diary of a Nobody...Jerome's writing...triumphantly stands the test of time, with its comic flights of exaggeration, its occasional archness, and its entirely innocent hint of the camp" Daily Telegraph "A charming comedy of friendship and human nature" Independent "One of the funniest books I've ever read. I laughed out loud and that doesn't happen often" -- Vic Reeves Daily Express "Brought laughter to a country in the throes of Victorian gloom" The Times "As well as being very funny, it captures the innocence of a time before adventure became synonymous with bungee jumping into ravines in faraway places" Observer
