"Candide" is a French satire following a young man's journey from sheltered optimism to painful disillusionment as he faces harsh realities. With a sarcastic tone, it parodies adventure clichés and critiques optimism through historical events. Voltaire advocates for practical action over blind optimism, famously concluding, "we must cultivate our garden."
