He opens the book attacking the enlightenment and rationalism and rants the whole way through about the flaws of modern society. I had this on my university book list for existentialism and only read it a few weeks ago! Really should have flicked through it at the time! <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/256495?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
