Càndid o l'optimisme is Voltaire's most famous novel, a philosophical tale that raises the question of the existence of evil. Through the young Càndid and his tutor Pangloss, Voltaire criticizes blind and conformist optimism, contrasting it with a pessimism that invites resignation and isolation in private life. This edition of labutxaca presents the work in Catalan, translated by Jordi Llovet.
