Sartre, Jean-Paul, 1905-1980,
Nausea / Jean-Paul Sartre ; translated from the French by Lloyd Alexander ; foreword by Richard Howard ; introduction by James Wood. - xx, 252 pages ; 20 cm
Translated from the French.
"Nausea is both the story of the troubled life of a young writer, Antoine Roquentin, and an exposition of one of the most influential and significant philosophical attitudes of modern times - existentialism. The book chronicles his struggle with the realization that he is an entirely free agent in a world devoid of meaning; a world in which he must find his own purpose and then take total responsibility for his choices. A seminal work of contemporary literary philosophy, Nausea evokes and examines the dizzying angst that can come from simply trying to live." --Penguin Classics.
