IMPERFECT Tristram Shandy Black Page T-shirt Unisex Large 42-44" Chest 53710X

Imperfect item - black print is slightly grainy. Barely noticeable.

Laurence Sterne's The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman could be said to have anticipated postmodernism long before anyone invented modernism. One of the unique self-mocking, form-breaking aspects of the book is the special typographical tricks - the most famous of which is the solid black mourning page which marks the death of Yorick. How typical of Sterne that the sad death of a character - of a disease that constantly threatened Sterne himself - is marked with a typographic joke.

Care: Machine wash cool. Tumble dry low. Do not iron text/images.
