Story
When first published in 1759, Candide became an instant best seller and is now regarded as one of the key texts of the Enlightenment. Voltaire’s preoccupations with evil and with various kinds of human folly and intolerance found a perfect vehicle in this philosophical tale. A master storyteller, he combined often wildly entertaining action with profoundly serious sense, parodying the traditional chivalric and oriental tales with which his public was more familiar.

Boring
I know this a classic but i found it to be so boring that i didn't continue past half way, it was interesting enough at first (maybe the first hour of listening) but soon became very redundant,i think the story is cool but as much as i tend to dislike the practice, it would be better abridged.
