Candide

Average rating
4 out of 5
Based on 271,517 Ratings and 11,343 Reviews

Book Description
One of the world's best known satires, CANDIDE refutes the optimistic but shallow "All's for the best in this best of all possible worlds." Candide's tutor, the philosophic Dr. Pangloss, embodies this creed, maintaining it in spite of all evidence to the contrary. A standard entry in world literature courses, CANDIDE is as funny and absurd today as when it was written more than 200 years ago.
