## Description

Brought to you by Penguin. This Penguin Classic is performed by Blake Harrison, star of The Inbetweeners , also known for his roles on screen in A Very English Scandal and Todd Margaret , as well as on London's West End in Waitress . This definitive recording includes an Introduction by D avid Carroll. Martyrs to hypochondria and general seediness, J. and his friends George and Harris decide that a jaunt up the Thames would suit them to a 'T'. But when they set off, they can hardly predict the troubles that lie ahead with tow-ropes, unreliable weather-forecasts and tins of pineapple chunks - not to mention the devastation left in the wake of J.'s small fox-terrier Montmorency. Three Men in a Boat was an instant success when it appeared in 1889, and, with its benign escapism, authorial discursions and wonderful evocation of the late-Victorian 'clerking classes', it hilariously captured the spirit of its age.
