A Sentimental Journey - Laurence Sterne
Category: Classic
Tags: Classic, Literature
Length: 4 hrs and 8 mins, Published just months before his death in 1768, A Sentimental Journey is Sternes lightly fictionalised account of his own European travels. And being Sterne, it is more about digressions, misunderstandings, and risqu jokes than the places he visits. Narrated by the (apparently) innocent Parson Yorick, who appeared in Sternes other masterpiece, Tristram Shandy, it is full of anecdote and incident, and is far more about the people than the landscapes on the road from Calais. Despite the title, any sentimentality is offset by the elegance of the writing, the engaging companionship of Yorick himself, and the constant, playful surprises., ******, Please seed and keep the torrent alive. Drop me a PM on the forum if you have any issues or if the torrent needs seeding. Thanks! :)
