Candide. By Voltaire. Illustrations by Sylvain Sauvage. Collector’s Edition. Easton Press. Norwalk, 1977.

$40.5 $61.97
Candide is Voltaire’s magnum opus, a slim work with enormous consequence on literary culture, both in France and the rest of Europe and America. Through satire and simple storytelling, Voltaire criticizes many prevailing philosophical theories of the Enlightenment and ends his work with no obvious philosophic formation in the minds of his characters–a brilliant denouement, one continually contemplated ever since it was published. In Candide, Voltaire proves that not all of life is a philosophical treatise. This collector’s edition is in fine condition. In the original blue leather with elaborate gilt stamping, fine. Raised bands. Gilt spine label. Text block fine. Gilt edges. Silk moire endpapers and bookmark sewn in.  A fine collector’s copy of Voltaire’s classic.
