A Sentimental Journey: Laurence Sterne

Synopsis

A furiously witty response to tobias smollett's curmudgeonly 'travels through france and italy', laurence sterne's a sentimental journey through france and italy became a hugely influential work of travel writing in its own right. This penguin classics edition includes an introduction and notes by paul goring. When yorick, the roving narrator of sterne's innovative final novel, sets off for france on a whim, he produces no ordinary travelogue.
