Synopsis of Candide and Other Stories

Candide es la historia de un hombre gentil que, a pesar de ser golpeado y abofeteado en todas direcciones por el destino, se aferra desesperadamente a la creencia de que vive en "el mejor de los mundos posibles". En la superficie, un cuento ingenioso y burlón, este clásico del siglo XVIII es en realidad un ataque salvaje y satírico al optimismo filosófico que proclama que todo desastre y sufrimiento humano es parte de un plan cósmico benevolente. Rápida, divertida y a menudo escandalosa, la narrativa inmortal del filósofo francés lleva a Candide por todo el mundo para descubrir que, contrariamente a las enseñanzas de su distinguido tutor, el Dr. Pangloss, no todo es siempre para lo mejor. Viva con ingenio, brillantez y una narración elegante, Candide se ha convertido en la obra más célebre de Voltaire.
