Tre uomini a zonzo

by Jerome K. Jerome

Cambiare aria e sfuggire alla questo si propongono tre amici londinesi quando decidono di visitare la Germania e fare un giro in bicicletta per la Selva Nera. Ma la loro avventura comincia ancor prima di ad esempio, non è per niente facile convincere le mogli che quel viaggio è necessario, e poi c'è da pensare all'itinerario, ai bagagli e a come organizzare i turni sul tandem. Uno scapolo e due ammogliati, tre caratteri a volte incompatibili, trascorrono una vacanza vivacizzata da una serie di divertenti disavventure. Con una buona dose di umorismo, comunque, si riesce a superare ogni difficoltà e andare a zonzo in compagnia si rivela un'esperienza meravigliosa.

About the author

Jerome Klapka Jerome was an English writer and humorist, best known for the comic travelogue Three Men in a Boat (1889). Other works include the essay collections Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow (1886) and Second Thoughts of an Idle Fellow; Three Men on the Bummel, a sequel to Three Men in a Boat; and several other novels. Jerome was born in Walsall, England, and, although he was able to attend grammar school, his family suffered from poverty at times, as did he as a young man trying to earn a living in various occupations. In his twenties, he was able to publish some work, and success followed. He married in 1888, and the honeymoon was spent on a boat on the River Thames; he published Three Men in a Boat soon afterwards. He continued to write fiction, non-fiction and plays over the next few decades, though never with the same level of success.
