Sobre aquest llibre
In 'Woodbarrow Farm', a play presented in three acts, Jerome K. Jerome extends his literary canvas to the rustic environs of a countryside where characters and their interwoven destinies play out against the backdrop of an English farmstead. Marked by the characteristic wit and insight that define Jerome's works, the play traverses the complexities of human relationships and social mores through brilliant dialogues and an engaging plot. While ostensibly exploring the dynamics of country life, Jerome subtly imprints the stylistic elements of satire and comedic plays, hallmarking the narratives of his era with a timeless pertinence to the human condition.

Sobre l'autor
Jerome K. Jerome, an illustrious English writer and humorist, was born on May 2, 1859, in Walsall, Staffordshire. His full name being Jerome Klapka Jerome, he is most renowned for his comic masterpiece 'Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog)', a work that has enthralled readers with its wit and humour since its publication in 1889. Possessing a distinctive narrative style characterized by a delightful mingling of humour and pathos, Jerome's writing often reflects on the idiosyncrasies of everyday life and the absurdities of the human condition. His literary oeuvre includes a variety of genres, encompassing essays, plays, and novels. Although 'Woodbarrow Farm' is less well-known in comparison to his iconic works, it nonetheless epitomizes Jerome's narrative flair and keen observation. His other significant works such as 'Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow' and 'Three Men on the Bummel' further established him as a leading figure in the world of English literature. Jerome's contribution to the literary arts extended beyond his own writing, as he also edited the magazine 'The Idler' along with his friend Robert Barr. Jerome's enduring legacy is encapsulated by the Jerome K. Jerome Society, which was founded to promote his work and literary style. Jerome passed away on June 14, 1927, but his writing continues to entertain and inspire readers worldwide.
