The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman

Written by Laurence Sterne

Narrated by Jason Smith (Male Synthesized Voice)

Tristram Shandy is a satirical and experimental work that takes a unique approach to storytelling. Rather than following a linear narrative, the book is a chaotic and digressive account of the life and opinions of its narrator, Tristram Shandy. The novel incorporates various elements, including humorous anecdotes, reflections on philosophy, and playful experiments with typography. It is often considered a precursor to modernist literature due to its unconventional structure and self-aware narrative.

Laurence Sterne

Irish-born Laurence Sterne was an eighteenth century English author and Anglican clergyman. Though he is perhaps best known as a novelist, Sterne also wrote memoirs, articles on local politics, and a large number of sermons for which he was quite well known during his lifetime. Sterne’s works include The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, A Sentimental Journey through France and Italy, and the satire A Political Romance (also known as The History of a Good Warm Watch-Coat). Sterne died in 1768 at the age of 54.
