The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman

Now in a new clothbound edition, Laurence Sterne's great masterpiece of bawdy humour and rich satire defies any attempt to categorize it. Part novel, part digression, its gloriously disordered narrative interweaves the birth and life of the 'hero' Tristram Shandy, the eccentric philosophy of his father, and the lives of a host of other characters.
