Book Reviews of Candide and Philosophical Letters (Modern Library)
Book Review: Everyone should read this book....
Summary: 4 Stars
I think that Candide, by Voltaire is a must-read. It mocks the traditonal views of optimism and takes on a almost, humorous approach to telling that story. It also teaches a lesson of contentment and it shows how Candide experienced the contentment of El Dorado and the sybolism of El Dorado to God's kingdom.
