Candide, or Optimism by Voltaire

Candide, or Optimism by Voltaire

Candide, raised to believe unshakeably in his tutor's philosophy that this is the best of all possible worlds, embarks on an increasingly absurd journey through catastrophe after catastrophe, war, disaster, betrayal, that systematically demolishes his naive optimism.

Voltaire's razor-sharp satire targets Leibnizian philosophical optimism and the era's institutions with equal ferocity, and the novella's fast-paced, darkly comic escalation of misfortune remains one of literature's most enduring and influential satirical works.

One of literature's sharpest satirical classics, a landmark of Enlightenment thought.
