Jerome K Jerome

Jerome K Jerome was an English author and humourist, best known for his novel Three Men in a Boat. He was born on May 2 1859 in Walsall, Staffordshire, England. His father, a railway clerk, passed away when Jerome was only thirteen years old, which had a significant impact on his life. He started working as a railway clerk like his father but found the job unfulfilling and left after a few years to pursue a career in theatre. He joined a repertory company, travelling around England and honed his writing and acting skills. In 1885, Jerome moved to London and began working as a freelance journalist, writing articles for various newspapers and magazines. Jerome’s breakthrough came in 1889 with the publication of his novel Three Men in a Boat. The book was an instant success and quickly became a bestseller, making Jerome a household name.
