Laurence Sterne

an Irish writer whose best-known work is his humorous novel Tristram Shandy, one of the earliest novels in English. His style influenced later writers who used the stream of consciousness method (1713-68). born Nov. 24, 1713, Clonmel, County Tipperary, Ire. died March 18, 1768, London, Eng.

Turning his parishes over to a curate, he began to write Tristram Shandy (1759-67), an experimental novel issued in nine parts in which the story is subordinate to its narrator's free associations and digressions.
