Because I've been busy, I am late in celebrating the birthday of the great Laurence Sterne, born 24 Nov. 1713 in Clonmel,

Here, my copy of the posthumously published letters to the object of his literary-romantic devotion, Eliza Draper (2nd ed. 1775).

Modern readers find in what the editor said he saw in Eliza: “a mind so congenial with his own, so enlightened, so refined, and so tender"

Wow, is that the 1st edition?

Sterne is freedom. Uncontainable.
