Micromegas and Other Short Fictions

0 - Default Title
Description
Something between a tale and a polemic these "fables of reason" are feats of narrative compression and contain much of Voltaire's best and funniest writing. From ribald tales of adultery to conversations between cosmic travellers the stories in this collection pose moral philosophical and social questions. Reader and protagonist alike find their assumptions challenged as Voltaire mingles rationality and fantasy.
