39.A Sentimental Journey by Laurence Sterne

Yorick and his servant, La Fleur, do the "Grand Tour" through France and Italy.  Yorick describes his travels in an informal, conversational style as a series of anecdotes and observations about his fellow travellers and other characters he meets along the way.

I enjoyed this amusing tale - it made me laugh.
