About This Novel
"Candide and the Innocent" contains two short philosophical novels by Voltaire. "Candide" tells the story of the protagonist who lived in a baron's palace since childhood and believed in a kind of blind optimism in a closed environment. He later fell in love with his cousin and was kicked out of the palace by the baron. He experienced various warmth and coldness in the world and social ills, and finally matured and grew up. "The Innocent" tells the story of a man who grew up in a Canadian tribe. After returning to French society as an adult, he found that he was incompatible with the environment and was imprisoned in the Bastille. In order to save him, his wife was forced to commit herself to others and committed suicide in shame and anger. After being released from prison, the "naive man" was promoted by the nobles and became an outstanding officer.
