Autorenporträt
Jerome K. Jerome (1859-1927) was an English writer and humorist, best known for his comic masterpiece 'Three Men in a Boat' (1889). Born in Staffordshire, England, Jerome began his career in the arts as an actor before turning to writing. His early struggles to establish himself are most notably captured in his semi-autobiographical work, 'The Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow' (1886). Jerome's literary style is characterized by a charming blend of humor and pathos, often reflecting on the absurdities of everyday life. While he gained lasting acclaim for his humorous essays and novels, Jerome also penned a number of plays, and his writing at times veered into speculative fiction, as seen in 'The Love of Ulrich Nebendahl' (1909), which offered a darker, more romantic narrative than his typical fare. This novella, though lesser-known compared to his humorous works, still showcases Jerome's range in tackling various genres with psychological depth and narrative intricacy. Despite changes in literary tastes over the years, Jerome's work has endured, enjoyed not only for its entertainment value but also its insightful commentary on the human condition. His legacy is cemented by his indelible influence on the English comic tradition, inspiring subsequent writers with his idiosyncratic blend of wit and wisdom.
