The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle follows the life of its titular character, an egotistical dandy navigating the complexities of 18th-century European society. Through a series of misadventures, Peregrine encounters a colorful cast of characters, each reflecting the quirks and follies of the time.

Written by Tobias Smollett, this picaresque novel offers a sharp and humorous critique of social norms, exploring themes of vanity, ambition, and the often absurd nature of human behavior. As Peregrine's journey unfolds, listeners will find themselves immersed in a richly detailed world filled with satire and wit.

Smollett's keen observations and lively storytelling make this work distinctive, providing not only entertainment but also a window into the cultural landscape of the 18th century. Join Peregrine on his escapades and discover the trials and tribulations that define his character and the society around him.

A terrible book when it was written but useful for history


(3 Sterne)

This book was a lewd and scandalous novel when it was written, and no self respecting person of high morality should have admitted to reading, much less enjoying, it in its contemporary day. As a nugget of historical context, however, it gives great insight into the processes and culture of the day.

Excellent


(5 Sterne)

The reader is fantastic. Pleasant voice, easy to understand, doesnt go loud or quiet. A+


(5 Sterne)

Brilliant reading, though the text is somewhat niche

Saved by a GREAT reader

I don't know how I made it through this book. Yes, it takes place in bygone years but what Peregrine Pickle considers good jokes on his friends seem downright mean to me. Some parts made me laugh a lot. Other things he did were hard to fathom. I doubt I'll look for volume II.

I especially enjoyed it and the reader I would listen to it again
