Voltaire - Candide
All is for the best? Everything happens for a reason? Was it really God's will? Written shortly after the calamitous Lisbon earthquake of 1755, Voltaire rails against such beliefs.
Entertaining throughout and thought provoking as we follow the string of misfortunes that befall our eponymous hero and his tutor Pangloss. Rightly considered a cornerstone of satirical writing.
