Written by Laurence Sterne - Audio book performed by John Moffatt - Abridged Fiction with music by Berlioz, Franck, Massenet, Weber and others - 4 COMPACT DISCS - 5.1 hours Publisher, Naxos Audiobooks (April 2005) Tristram Shandy is an ironic masterpiece, a work of extraordinary originality, wit and learning. It is a work of considerable philosophical complexity but at the same time it is just a piece of flim-flam: it has been called the longest shaggy dog story in English Literature. It is both a classic novel and an anti-novel. It includes passages of seemingly-serious theology - but it can also be read as an elaborate bawdy joke. |
