Tristram Shandy CD-Audio
by Laurence Sterne
Narrated by Anton Lesser
Part of the Classic Fiction series
CD-Audio
Description
Laurence Sterne's most famous novel is a biting satire of literary conventions and contemporary eighteenth-century values.
Renowned for its parody of established narrative techniques, "Tristram Shandy" is commonly regarded as the forerunner of avant-garde fiction.
Tristram's characteristic digressions on a whole range of unlikely subjects (including battle strategy and noses!) are endlessly surprising and make this one of Britain's greatest comic achievements.
A cast of strange characters populate this strangest of novels: gentle Uncle Toby, sarcastic Walter and of course, the pompous, garrulous Tristram himself.
This edition is read by Anton Lesser in a tour de force performance.
