Question

Can anyone please post the
Character Sketch of Harris from 3 men in a boat

Answer 1

Harris appears to be a practical young man, who could not see much romanticism in the
world around him. He was fond . of drinking and was not too fond of working hard. He did
not seem to have much imagination and was more aggressive than the other two. He was
also very fond of eating. He had a strange fascination for cemeteries and tombs and would
like to visit graveyards, unlike the narrator.
He did not have much aesthetic sense and dressed in loud colours like orange and yellow,
which did not suit him. He was a terrible singer and could never remember the words to a
song. He did think he was a great comic singer, though, and often sang comic songs, which
ended up being not very funny. Similarly, he thought he could cook well, but as the incident
with the eggs showed, he was not a good cook either. In addition, he was a frank and
outspoken young man, which was evident when he ensured that George did not play his
banjo within his hearing.

Answer 2

Harris is a vain fellow who pretends to be extremely hard working but usually pushes off the burden on other people. he is outspoken and does not hesitate to tell his friends what he thinks about them even if it may not be pleasant. for example he outwardly tells george that his new blazer is utterly revolting and that he must not wear it around them (harris and j). when harris takes on a job he makes a huge fuss out of it like the narator;s uncle podger. it may not be anything majorly important but if harris is going to do it .... the world would know about it. he also thinks very highly of himself and his voice though his friends do not want him to even attempt singing. he is extremely fascinated by tombs and graveyards much to j \'s dislike. he is also quite short tempered and it is best to let him rant off his anger rather than try and talk to him about it.he wouldn \'t mind a drink at any time of the day and enjoys the company of his friends .
