    Join Candide on a wild ride through life! This young man believes the world is the best it can be, but guess what? The world has other plans. Torn from his cozy life, Candide embarks on a journey through palaces and battlefields, across continents and seas. He sees war, gets betrayed, loses everything, and yet he keeps searching for meaning and love. 
    Voltaire, the master of wit, takes aim at blind faith and empty ideals. As Candide faces challenges and tests, we too are forced to confront the mysteries of fate and human nature. 
    This audiobook brings Voltaire’s original text to life with clear and powerful narration. It’s not just about following Candide’s adventures -- it’s about grappling with his questions, sharing his laughter, and finding wisdom in his quiet conclusion.

    Jilting of Jane The (Unabridged)

    H. G. Wells

    The Jilting of Jane is a short story by H. G. Wells. Herbert George "H. G." Wells (21 September 1866 - 13 August 1946) was an English writer, now best known for his work in the science fiction genre. He was also a prolific writer in many other genres, including contemporary novels, history, politics and social commentary, even writing textbooks and rules for war games. Wells is sometimes called "The Father of Science Fiction," as are Jules Verne and Hugo Gernsback. His most notable science fiction works include The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine, The Invisible Man and The Island of Doctor Moreau. Wells's earliest specialised training was in biology, and his thinking on ethical matters took place in a specifically and fundamentally Darwinian context. He was also from an early date an outspoken socialist, often (but not always, as at the beginning of the First World War) sympathising with pacifist views. His later works became increasingly political and didactic, and he sometimes indicated on official documents that his profession was that of "Journalist."
