Sobre este artículo
Trade paperback, this is a scholarly work offering background and criticism. The text of the satire Candide runs the first 80 pages of this 194-page text. Voltaire's satire skewers religion, theologians, governments, armies, philosophies, and philosophers. Edited by Robert M. Adams, this is a stated first edition. The original story was first published in 1759.
There are chips and rubs on the cover, creases and fading on the spine and scattered underlining and margin notes on the pages. None of the wear is significant, and the pages remain tight and readable.

Sinopsis
Ever since 1759, when Voltaire wrote "Candide" in ridicule of the notion that this is the best of all possible worlds, this world has been a happier place for readers. Voltaire wrote it in three days, and many generations have found that its laughter does not grow old.
