Candide: Did the coen brothers write this?

Candide is a novel for people with attention deficit disorder. If you cannot pay attention when reading Candide, I don't know how you read novels at all. The incredibly linear style creates short stories into a novel by putting them together extremely quickly. Years pass by in just a few chapters. But don't forget about the never ending dark humor! Another aspect of this novels attention-getting talents. Voltaire shows us death, canabalism, and rape like pulling adorable, white bunnies out of a hat and then putting them directly back into the hat. He doesn't linger on the dark ideas but he certainly doesn't pass them up either. I found myself laughing at hanging, beating, stabbing, and ravishing with a feeling of total disgust afterward. There is one thing about Candide that is undeniable: talk about historical references. GOOD LORD. "everything is best," with this, Voltaire ridicules Leibniz's philosophy by oversimplifying his optimism and terminology and presenting funny examples. I wonder if he wrote the entire novel just for this purpose. I mean its short, it has a common theme, maybe we over analyze his intentions for the novel. Voltaire was obviously an incredibly talented writer and could hide his deep criticism through what seems to be an innovative, comical, interesting novel. I like this idea. I like to think that authors us books for more than creating a timeless story, but a timeless story with a present use for his time. Out of all of the summer reading, this one was not a bore. Its possibly the most genuinely interesting book other than Harry Potter (the best novelistic act of all time :D)
