by DENIS DIDEROT (1713-84) translated and adapted by MICHAEL HENRY and Goethe called it 'an enormous and delicate banquet'. It is a literary experiment; a philosophical romp. It is like a set of Chinese boxes, consisting of stories within the tale of the loves and adventures of the dauntless man-servant Jacques. He is a delightful character who explains the absurdity of life by one formula: 'It's all written in the stars'.
