Candide, Part II

Candide, or Optimism — Part II is an apocryphal picaresque novel, possibly written by or Henri Joseph Du Laurens, and published in 1760. The publisher presented it as a sequel to Candide.
The original work was written by Voltaire and had been published a year earlier ; it had been banned, but was popular enough that unauthorized publishers and printers sold it on the blackmarket anyways. This "second part" was attributed to both Campigneulles—"a now largely unknown writer of third-rate moralising novels" and Laurens—who is suspected of having habitually plagiarised Voltaire. The story continued with Candide new adventures in the Ottoman Empire, Persia, and Denmark.
A scholarly French edition with introduction and notes was produced in 2003 by Edouard Langille, who, in 2007, also edited Candide en Dannemarc, which takes up the story following Candide, Part II.
