   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.04 sec.

Tristram Shandy

Novel by Laurence Sterne, published 1759–67. The work, a forerunner of the 20th-century stream-of-consciousness novel, has no coherent plot and uses typographical devices to emphasize the author's disdain for the structured novels of his contemporaries.
