About this listen

In this witty and satirical fable, Voltaire’s hero, Memnon, determines the three tasks he will easily accomplish to become a great philosopher and perfectly happy. In spite of his naive confidence in his willpower and the cooperation of life events, fate has other things in store for him designed to thwart his plans.

The author of Candide and Zadig here condenses his literary panache and keen human insights into his classic form of brief, ironic fiction.
