"Zadig, ou la Destinée, histoire orientale" by Voltaire is a philosophical tale published in 1747. Young Zadig navigates a fantastical Orient where fortune constantly shifts between favor and cruelty. Falsely accused, narrowly escaping punishment, and rising to become Babylon's Prime Minister, he faces injustice, superstition, and danger at every turn. When his forbidden love for Queen Astarté is discovered, Zadig must flee, encountering colorful characters while never losing hope of returning to
claim his destiny in Babylon. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
