Sinopsis

The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle is a rollicking 18th-century picaresque novel chronicling the reckless life of its eponymous anti-hero, a hot-headed and impulsive young gentleman. Born to a wealthy family but disinherited after a quarrel, Peregrine embarks on a turbulent journey through the brothels, gambling dens, and naval ships of Britain and continental Europe. Alongside vivid depictions of debauchery and misadventure, the novel features the unforgettable character of Commodore Trunnion, a comically eccentric naval veteran. Smollett blends satire, bawdy humor, and sharp social critique to expose the vices and follies of the age. A foundational work in the development of the English novel, it captures the wild spirit of youth, rebellion, and self-destruction.
