"The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman" by Laurence Sterne is a humorous novel published from 1759 to 1767. The work purports to be a memoir, but narrator Tristram doesn't reach his own birth until the third volume. Through endless digressions, he recounts four accidents that doomed him to misfortune while depicting conflicts between his irritable father Walter and gentle Uncle Toby. The novel features sexual innuendo, unfinished sentences, and surprising visual elements including blank pages and censored paragraphs, transforming Sterne from obscure clergyman to literary celebrity.
