Publisher's Summary

Tomandole el pelo a la humanidad. La vision del mundo que tuvo Voltaire debio haber sido muy risuena, ya que su obra es un conjunto de ironias y de humor que va de lo escabroso a lo filosofico. Lo notable es que todo esto estuvo al servicio de ideas, en las cuales el tono satirico sirivieron para encauzar y ensenar al mundo hacia algo mejor. La historia de Candido, de su amada pero no muy pura Cunegunda y del optimista profesor Pangloss, quien opinaba que vivimos en el mejor de los mundos, a pesar de que todas las experiencias le dicen exactamente lo contrario. Candido de Voltaire es pues, ademas de una obra con hondo contenido una de las piezas maestras del humor negro, y eso se refleja en la lectura que de esta creacion hace Laura Garcia, la conocidsa artista de teatro y de television.

A flamboyant and controversial personality of enormous wit and intelligence, Voltaire remains one of the most influential figures of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. Candide, his masterpiece, is a brilliant satire of the theory that our world is "the best of all possible worlds".
