From the Back Cover Laurence Sterne's revolutionary novel The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman (17601767) plays with time, space, narrative conceits, and the very concept of the novel itselfit has dramatically affected the course of Englishlanguage fiction in the centuries since, with works from writers such as James Joyce and Thomas Pynchon showing his influence. A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy (1768) is the thematic sequel, a tale of a minor character from Shandy that is its own frolic of experimental fiction. Though less well known than its celebrated predecessor, this is an equally startling and frantically imaginative work from a writer some consider a comic genius. This edition also features the collection The Journal to Eliza, Sterne's impishly coy diary of a separation from his mistress, as well as numerous letters Sterne wrote to a variety of correspondents, including his wife.

We were quite alone; and that superinduced a second blush before the first could get off. from "The Temptation" Laurence Sterne's revolutionary novel The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman (17601767) plays with time, space, narrative conceits, and the very concept of the novel itselfit has dramatically affected the course of Englishlanguage fiction in the centuries since, with works from writers such as James Joyce and Thomas Pynchon showing his influence.
