by DENIS DIDEROT (1713-84) translated and adapted by JOHN HOPE MASON with Peter Woodthorpe as the Nephew and Patrick Allen as Diderot
A dialogue between a philosopher and a parasite. To the philosopher, moral values are universal and desirable; to the Nephew, they are useless and harmful.
What is morally undesirable can be creatively fruitful and truth can cause more trouble than benefit.
