eBook Summary: The story of a gentle man who clings desperately to the belief that he lives in "the best of all possible worlds," even though he's been slapped in every direction by fate. On the surface a witty, bantering tale, this eighteenth-century classic is actually a savage, satiric thrust at the philosophical optimism that proclaims that all disaster and human suffering is part of a benevolent cosmic plan. Fast, funny, often outrageous, the French philosopher's immortal narrative takes Candide around the world to discover that - contrary to the teachings of his distinguished tutor Dr. Pangloss - all is not always for the best. |
