I’am going to analyze the text “Three men in the boat”. The author of this text is Jerome K. Jerome. He is a popular English writer. The most famous works are Three Men in a Boat, The Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, Novel Notes. He is famous for his art of story-telling and his humour which is based on misunderstanding. He is good at revealing the weak sides of human nature.
This text is about three men who decided to cook an Irish stew. Jerome presents his story as 1st-person narration with elements of the description. In this story we can dearly distinguish three main characters: the narrator, Harris and George. The general slant of the story is realistic, the emotive key is prosaic, with some shades of humor.
