Description : Candide by Voltaire is the story of a gentle man whose fate pummels and slaps him in every direction. However, he clings desperately to the belief that he lives in "the best of all possible worlds." Though it seems to be 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, humorous, and many times outrageous, Voltaire's immortal narrative takes Candide around the world to discover that - contrary to the teachings of his distinguished teacher Dr. Pangloss -- all is not always for the best. Alive with wit, brilliance and graceful storytelling, Candide has become Voltaire's most celebrated work and one of the great classics.
