Existential Saul looks at a man in waiting (to go to war) and the idleness that becomes his life. This is written in diary form. It is interesting and portrays a glimpse into the psychology of those traversing through life with few objectives and few beliefs to follow.
this is a story for those looking at a life not to follow if intrigued with all of the wonders of life.
