Mere bald fabrication is useless; the veriest tyro [fisherman] can manage that. It is in the circumstantial detail, the embellishing touches of probability, the general air of scrupulous veracity, that the experienced angler is seen. I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. I love to keep it by me: the idea of getting rid of it nearly breaks my heart. It is always the best policy to speak the truth, unless of course you are an exceptionally good liar.

Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome (1859-1927) About the author Jerome Klapka Jerome, best known as the author of 'Three Men in a Boat' , one of the great comic masterpieces of modern times, was born in Walsall, Staffordshire, on 2nd May 1859, the youngest of four children. His father, who had interests in the local coal and iron industries and was a prominant non-conformist preacher, had moved to the town in 1855 and installed the family in a fashionable middle class house in Bradford Street where they lived in comparative comfort until 1861. Following the collapse of the family business, the Jeromes moved first to Stourbridge and thence to Poplar in the East End of London where he was brought up in relative poverty. Jerome left school at fourteen and variously worked as a clerk, a hack journalist, an actor ('I have played every part in Hamlet except Ophelin') and a schoolmaster. His first book 'On the Stage and Off' was published in 1885 and this was followed by numerous plays, books and magazine articles. In 1927, one year after writing his autobiography

JEROME K. JEROME Comencemos por el comienzo, o principiemos por el principio. Puntos en común con Terry Pratchett: Obviamente su sentido del humor, típicamente inglés, y en especial la fina ironía y el cariño con que trata a sus personajes: por muy caricaturescos que parezcan, no dejan de ser seres humanos con los que nos podemos identificar. En especial J.K. Jerome parece mimar a sus personajes y a la vez burlarse de ellos con mayor ainco, cosa comprensible, dado que en sus dos libros más famosos, ‘Tres hombres en una barca’ y ‘Tres ingleses en Alemania’ (‘Three men in a boat’ y ‘Three men in the Brummel’, que es algo así como tres hombres en la selva negra, pero aquí en apañña parece que no sabemos que é lo que é eso de la selva negra ni andestá. En fin...) están protagonizados precisamente por él y dos amiguetes suyos. Toma ya. Su nombre completo era Jerome Klapka Jerome, y como podeis adivinar, alguien con ese nombre tiene que tener sentido del humor por fuerza. Que mala sombra por parte de sus padres, direis, ponerle al niño el mismo nombre que apeyido, pero si os digo que su padre tambien se llamaba Jerome, a lo mejor lo entendeis. El hombre debió pensar que mal de muchos... De niño lo pasó muy malamente, su familia se arruinó y perdió a sus papás antes de los quince, osea, desgracia humana total. Al final se hizo arquitecto, y como su verdadera vocación era la de predicador, el tío se dedicó a construir iglesias y luego oficiar en ellas, aunque nunca fue realmente sacerdote. Pro claro, mientras los feligreses no se enterasen...

19. Jerome K Jerome 18591927. I did not intend to write a funny book . This author wrote the funniest book I ve ever read - Three Men in a Boat - more than a century ago. http://www.a.ghinn.btinternet.co.uk/jerome.htm

"I did not intend to write a funny book..." This author wrote the funniest book I've ever read - Three Men in a Boat - more than a century ago. I've put some extracts below for you to enjoy. You can also read an online version here. Tinned Pineapple It cast a gloom over the boat, there being no mustard. We ate our beef in silence. Existence seemed hollow and uninteresting. We thought of the happy days of childhood, and sighed. We brightened up a bit, however, over the appletart, and, when George drew out a tin of pineapple from the bottom of the hamper, and rolled it into the middle of the boat, we felt that life was worth living after all. We are very fond of pineapple, all three of us. We looked at the picture on the tin; we thought of the juice. We smiled at one another, and Harris got a spoon ready. Then we looked for the knife to open the tin with. We turned out everything in the hamper. We turned out the bags. We pulled up the boards at the bottom of the boat. We took everything out on to the bank and shook it. There was no tin-opener to be found. Then Harris tried to open the tin with a pocket-knife, and broke the knife and cut himself badly; and George tried a pair of scissors, and the scissors flew up, and nearly put his eye out. While they were dressing their wounds, I tried to make a hole in the thing with the spiky end of the hitcher, and the hitcher slipped and jerked me out between the boat and the bank into two feet of muddy water, and the tin rolled over, uninjured, and broke a teacup.
