A Sentimental Journey

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

“Funny, human, highly learned and literary, sexy, and filled with psychological nuances that remain unrivaled at the hands of any other psychological writer.” —André Aciman A novel without a plot, this work chronicles the adventures of Parson Yorick as he travels through France and Italy, enjoying encounters with a variety of people, especially attractive ones. The narrative shifts from a travelogue to a collection of dramatic sketches, ironic incidents, philosophical reflections, and anecdotes, blending sharp wit with gaiety and tender emotion. Alongside his masterpiece, Tristram Shandy, the author developed a unique style that positioned him as a pioneer of stream-of-consciousness writing. This edition includes an introduction that contextualizes the novel within Sterne's broader work and the genre of "sentimental" literature, as well as a chronology, reading suggestions, and comprehensive explanatory notes. For over seventy years, Penguin has been a leading publisher of classic literature, offering a vast collection of authoritative texts enhanced by scholarly introductions and notes, making it a trusted source for readers seeking the best works across history and genres.
