Summary
Tristram Shandy is an example of classic literature that has withstood the test of time. A sensation in England when first released in a series of nine volumes, this amusing novel is widely considered to be a masterpiece in satire fiction.
Within Tristram Shandy, Laurence Sterne introduces a cast of some of the most well-known characters in literature, including Uncle Toby and his military obsession, Corporal Trim, Parson Yorick, and Dr. Slop. Sterne's sarcastic humor was rare in the literature of 18th-century Europe. Uniquely structured as a fictional autobiography, Tristram Shandy is whimsically entertaining.
Laurence Sterne was an 18th-century Irish clergyman turned novelist. He was widely respected throughout Europe and has been called one of the greatest novelists of his time.
