    About this ebook

    As the amiable Parson Yorick travels through France and Italy, he relishes his encounters with the men and women—especially the pretty women—he meets along the way. A novel without a typical plot, a journey without a physical destination, Sterne’s witty and tender tale is a treasury of portraits, dramatic sketches, and philosophical musings.

    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.
