Candide's comfortable lifestyle suddenly comes to an end one day when he is thrown out of the castle of his uncle the baron, in which he has spent his entire life, for kissing the baron's daughter Lady Cunégonde.

He is reunited with, separated from and then reunited again with Pangloss and Cunégonde, who both survive what appears to be certain death. In spite of all the suffering that he sees, hears about and experiences, Candide clings to his philosophy of optimism for a long time, before eventually deciding that the best way to live is simply to keep busy. The novel satirizes philosophy, religion, government, the miltary and other institutions of the day. The plot also pokes fun at the conventions of romantic and adventure novels.
