"Three Men in a Boat" (Three Men in a Boat) was written in 1889. It was once selected as one of the "50 Most Humorous Literary Works in History" and has remained popular for more than 100 years. Three ordinary and quite contented young people, with a bully and naughty dog, left London in high spirits and went rafting on the Thames River. Can they, who failed to get up on the first day, finally triumph in style? In their absurd and interesting travel experiences and memories, the scenery along the Thames and the social climate of Britain in the 19th century slowly unfolded like a picture scroll. Jerome, a representative writer of British humor, writes with ease, making people laugh and think deeply. Series# contains more than 60 black and white line drawings and four watercolor reproductions.

"The Idle Man's Fantasy" is not only, as the author says, a kind of respite from reading the "100 Best Books", it is also definitely a humorous classic that can be included in the ranks of literary masterpieces. Under Jerome's humorous and cold writing style, the ordinary details of social life in England in the nineteenth century become interesting and lifelike. This miraculous observation of life, even today, a hundred years later, we will still use it to compare our own lives without knowing it.
