Description
Candide, a satirical masterpiece by Voltaire, remains as relevant today as it was when first published. This novella tells the story of Candide, a young man who embarks on a journey of discovery after being disillusioned with the world around him.
Through his experiences, Candide comes to realize that life is not always "for the best" and that sometimes, the most practical approach is to focus on cultivating one's own garden. This Warbler Classics edition features extensive notes, a comprehensive glossary, and a detailed biographical timeline of Voltaire's life and work.
