A review by amyschmelzer
Candide by Voltaire

4.0

“Fools admire everything in a celebrated author. I read only for myself, and I like only what suits me personally.”

M. Candide is a naive man who ventures on an epic journey to find a girl. He meets many people along the way and pays the price for his naïveté. This story ponders the meaning of life. There is found family. It points out the absurdity of the evils committed in the name of religion. It has funny spots.
