Jerome Klapka Jerome

Three men on the Bummel [with CD (Audio)] (Reading & Training: Step 4) Jerome Klapka Jerome

The unabridged classic on MP3 audio, narrated by Alfred von Lecteur. Three playback speeds on one disk; etext edition included. Running time: 6.7 hours (slow), 6.1 hours (medium), 5.6 hours (fast).

This sequel to Jerome's most famous work brings back the three companions who figured in Three Men in a Boat -- this time on a bicycle tour through the German Black Forest. Again, the story unfolds as a series of humorous vignettes, each of which builds slowly through accumulation of layer on layer of detail, and concerns either bicycling, genial commentary on German culture from the British point of view, or the antics of the three friends.
