LearnOutLoud.com Review
Listen to this French satire written by the Enlightenment philosopher Voltaire and published in 1759. In this short work with a running time of only 4 hours, Voltaire delivers a relentless, brutal assault on government, society, religion, education, and, above all, optimism. The novel follows the character of Candide after he is indoctrinated with optimism by his mentor, Pangloss, who teaches his pupils that they live in the "best of all possible worlds". Candide then goes out into the world is lead through a slow, painful disillusionment as he witnesses and experiences great hardships.
