About this listen
George, Harris, and J. decide to take a cycling trip through the Black Forest - to be accomplished on a tandem plus one. Whether it is Harris's harrowing experience with a Hanoverian road-waterer or George's valiant attempt to buy a cushion for his aunt, their experiences are hilarious - - and they may even offer some important lessons to all who may be contemplating a cycling trip in the U.S.

Funny
Not as hilarious as 3 men on a boat, but nevertheless very very funny. I was listening in my car and people were staring from other cars at me because I was laughing so hard.

Of its Time
A beautifully written book but it is very much of its time. As a modern reader, I found the commentry on the German people of the time hard to take! It is, however a, perhaphs timely, reminder of how far we have come in respecting others and how easy it would be to forget how such commentry can offend.
Unlike other reviewers, I found the reader helped me get through this book... his delivery is sarcastic in tone... but then surely this is the tone the author would have wanted. It seemed to me to match the book's sentiment perfectly

I don’t choose it from my library...
I pass this one over when picking a comfortable “listen” because the narration grates awfully. It is nasal and sounds supercilious which is not how it was written - very disappointing.

Witty novel, disappointing narration
Brilliantly witty book sadly ruined by a very sarcastic narration. Really disappointing. Would recommend avoiding this version.

Narration shockingly bad
I like this story. Not as good as "In A Boat", but still good. However, it's impossible to ignore the grating awfullness of the narrator. I can hardly believe it could be as bad as it is. Just unlistenable.

Long winded and tedious
I was really disappointed with this book and did not bother listening to the end. I had enjoyed 3 men I; a boat although it is a while since I read it. This was rather tedious with a few amusing moments but not enough. The narrator’s voice was rather monotone and added to the slow moving feel of the story! I can not recommend the book as I could not encourage myself to listen to the end!

Disappointing!
If you enjoyed the classic 'Three Men in a Boat' - as I did, don't bank on this!
