i recently reread Candide too, and honestly whenever i’m feeling depressed about political things i have an imaginary convo with Dr Pangloss where i ask him about anything, like Palestine or America, and he looks at it and replies ‘oh but we live in the best of all possible worlds!’ and then i laugh to myself. That is such a good book, and it is so funny and sharp. Would love to do a book club with you sometime
