Candide

Candide is a young man living a paradisaical life, mentored by a tutor, Professor Pangloss. When Candide falls for Cunegonde, the daughter of the Baron Thunder-ten-Tronkh, he is thrown out of the castle, which has been his home, and embarks upon a series of epic adventures. Satirical and witty, Voltaire pokes fun at the classical romantic adventures of the time.
