«Jacques le fataliste et son maître» is the philosophical novel by Denis Diderot, published by Folio in paperback (384 pages).
Jacques and his master travel aimlessly while conversing: the servant recounts his amorous adventures and insists that everything is written in the great book, while the master retorts, grows impatient, and changes the subject. Diderot intervenes, speaks to the reader, and breaks narrative conventions to explore destiny, chance, and freedom.
Part of the Folio collection (no. 763), it includes a preface by Yvon Belaval and the complete text.
For readers of French classics and for those who enjoy a novel that plays with narrative form.
