Reviews

[Kat]

A product of its time. Unless you are interested in how Sartre was seen in a particular moment in his career, probably not a great choice. The material is interesting, but the writing style makes it a bit of a slog.

[Sam]

Very short, easily accessible summary of Sartre - although much easier to understand if you’ve already read some of his work. In which case it acts as a 2nd opinion on some of his more obscure writings.

[Jay Rothermel]

Very entertaining
