When Yorick, the roving semi-autobiographical narrator of author Laurence Sterne's innovative novel, sets off for France on a whim, his destination takes second place to an exhilarating voyage of emotional and erotic exploration.
Jolting along in his coach from Calais, through Paris, and on towards the Italian border, the amiable parson is blithely unconcerned by famous view or monuments, but he engages us with tales of his encounters with all manner of people, from counts and noblewomen to beggars and chambermaids.
