This Penguin Modern Classics edition is translated from the French by Robert Baldick with an introduction by James Wood.</p><p><em>Nausea</em> is both the story of the troubled life of an introspective historian, 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 realisation 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, <em>Nausea</em> evokes and examines the dizzying angst that can come from simply trying to live.</p><p>Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980) was an iconoclastic French philosopher, novelist, playwright and, widely regarded as the central figure in post-war European culture and political thinking. Sartre famously refused the Nobel Prize for literature in 1964 on the grounds that a writer should not allow himself to be turned into an institution. His most well-known works, all of which are published by Penguin, include <em>The Age of Reason</em>, <em>Nausea</em> and <em>Iron in the Soul</em>.</p><p>If you enjoyed <em>Nausea</em>, you might like Albert Camus <em>The Outsider</em>, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.</p><p>One of the very few successful members of the genre "Philosophical Novel" ... a young mans <em>tour de force</em><br />Iris Murdoch</p>...4269892Nausea226257https://www.gandhi.com.mx/nausea-9780141997988/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4010855/image.jpg?v=638392510599200000InStockMXN99999DIEbook2021Inglés
