In his book 'Indian Philosophy' vol. 1, pg 278,
Radhakrishnan writes thus about the materialist Charvaka philosophy: "The substance
of this doctrine is summed up by a character in the allegorical play of
Prabodhacandrodaya."

I give below links to some relevant portions of the Prabodhacandrodaya; and leave it to the reader to draw his own conclusions:

Note that the character 'Materialist' represents none other than Charvaka.
