The book is known for its experimental narrative style, which includes elements such as blank pages, marbled pages, and even a black page to represent the death of a character. The novel's themes include the nature of time, the importance of family, and the role of chance in life. The Life And Opinions Of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman is considered a classic of English literature and has influenced many writers since its publication.My father, as appears from many of his papers, was very subject to this passion, before he married--but from a little subacid kind of drollish impatience in his nature, whenever it befell him, he would never submit to it like a christian; but would pish, and huff, and bounce, and kick, and play the Devil, and write the bitterest Philippicks against the eye that ever man wrote.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
