John Barth

The sot-weed factor.

Recounts the wildly chaotic odyssey of hapless, ungainly Ebenezer Cooke, sent to the New World to look after his father's tobacco business. The book is a tribute to the most insidious human vices and a hilarious ride through the 18th century in the company of heroes, villans, innocents and rogues.

I found this amusing and pretty well-done, but I can imagine it'd get old for somebody not on a mission to read the likes of Barth.
