Digressions

In 2013 – the tercentenary of the birth of Laurence Sterne – Philippa Troutman and Ian Duhig started digressing, getting lost in time and space around Shandy Hall. They chanced on riches from Viking ghost stories to Conceptual Poetry, in a meteorite-riddled topography of forgotten monuments, mazes, ruins and traps, sharing their discoveries and creations in texts, exhibitions and online. The results range from the humorous and moving to the fascinating and macabre, engaging and extending Sterne's legacy for the twenty-first century.
