"Tristram Shandy est un ouvrage excentrique, déroutant, riche et tendre. C'est un roman qui se moque du genre romanesque. C'est un faux ouvrage d'érudition qui ridiculise les cuistres. C'est un traité d'art militaire où l'on fait combattre des soldats de plomb, un livre d'obstétrique où le médecin arrive en retard, une histoire d'amour inachevée, un tableau de la société campagnarde anglaise et des humeurs d'une étrange famille. Tristram Shandy, qui embrasse tous les sujets, qui est écrit sur tous les tons, est un livre de tous les temps, chef-d'Oeuvre de fantaisie, d'humour et de sensibilité
