More about the book
The narrative showcases a series of inventive practical jokes, with Peregrine Pickle serving as a catalyst for humor and satire. Smollett's energetic prose elevates even the cruelest jests, such as those targeting Hawser Trunnion, reflecting 18th-century attitudes towards madness and eccentricity. As the story progresses, the jokes evolve from mere entertainment to sharp critiques of folly and affectation, revealing a deeper satirical commentary that resonates with modern readers. The novel balances humor with a critique of societal norms.
