Story
En 1571, tras sufrir un accidente montando a caballo, Michel de Montaigne abandona su posición como magistrado de Burdeos para retirarse y empezar a escribir. Ese es el inicio, casi novelesco, de una de las obras más importantes de la cultura occidental. «No enseño ni adoctrino, lo que hago es relatar», afirma Montaigne. Y entretanto dialoga con los pensadores clásicos sobre todo tipo de cuestiones relativas a la condición humana. Sus escritos son continuas tentativas de encontrar respuestas casi como si se tratara de un experimento, una probatura, un essai, un ensayo.

Publisher's summary
A flamboyant and controversial personality of enormous wit and intelligence, Voltaire remains one of the most influential figures of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. Candide, his masterpiece, is a brilliant satire of the theory that our world is "the best of all possible worlds".

Una de mis grabaciones favoritas
Este libro es uno de mis favoritos, y esta es una buena grabación de esta versión en español. Es un ejemplo del "cuento filosófico," y un buen ejemplo. Hay muchos hechos irónicos, y es muy divertido, aunque en una manera intelectual. He escuchado esta grabación varias veces.

NO para optimistas
Would you consider the audio edition of Candido [Candide] to be better than the print version?
Este audiolibro es una buena elección práctica, no se necesita leer la versión impresa.
What did you like best about this story?
Aunque es una obra sumamente pesimista, la narración y los sucesos son muy interesantes, no hay tiempo para aburrirse.
Have you listened to any of Laura Garcia’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Nunca había escuchado a Laura García como lectora de un libro, debo confirmar que estuvo excelente en "Cándido" y su voz es muy agradable.
Any additional comments?
"Cándido" es un clásico de la literatura universal, no se pierdan esta versión en audiolibro. Eso sí, cuidado porque es un libro pesimista en todos los sentidos.

Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. He is surrounded by Vonnegut's usual large cast of continuing characters (notably here the hack science fiction writer Kilgore Trout and the alien Tralfamadorians, who oversee his life and remind him constantly that there is no causation, no order, no motive to existence).

Story
Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.
