I love Sarah’s writing on so many levels. She’s a master at blending the biographies of history’s most interesting people with an easy-to-understand view of their ideas or accomplishments.
At The Existentialist Café takes you to Paris after World War II to meet some of modern philosophy’s most interesting thinkers including Jean-Paul Satre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus, Martin Heidegger, and more.
This book sings to my soul because I’m a philosophy guy. I wish more books made this field of study easy and fun to learn about.
If you read this week’s recommendation, you’ll get a decent idea of Sarte’s concept of contingency and freedom, what existentialism means, and even Heideggers concept of Being.
Enjoy! I know I did. I don’t have this one at my bookstore, so the best I can do is send you to Amazon. See the link below.
