Illustrated by internationally known artist Sean Stephane Martin, this edition (here presented with the original French text) is augmented with images of a universe where robots, mechanical beings, and the occasional alien play out Voltaire's famous story of the "best of all possible worlds". With little Candide the only vaguely humanoid, the rest of the cast explodes, short-circuits, and deep-freezes... only to return to shoulder on in a universe as cold and unfeeling as those populating it. By turns wry, sensually beautiful, and horrific, this is a version of CANDIDE you return to again and again. Please note: this is the original French text. An English version will also be released shortly.
