Description
Denis Diderot's Rameau's Nephew is a unique and provocative work of French literature. Written over many years, it was first released to great impact in 18th-century France. In this famous Parisian setting, two men engage in a conversation that satirises the society around them. They trade stories, gossip about their acquaintances, and discuss fundamental questions about genius, good and evil, art, music, and chess. As they part ways at half past five, their dialogue leaves a lasting impression. This edition features a brand new translation of Diderot's dialogue, offering readers the chance to experience this influential work in English for the first time.
