Resumen
Designed for a new generation of readers, this superb anthology includes Sartres personal responses to New York and Naples, an essay on surrealism and on Brecht, a spoof psychoanalytical dialogue, an extended essay on sexual desire and shorter pieces on maternal love and masturbation. It explores Sartres celebrated quarrel with Camus, his constant but clear-eyed fascination with communism and, in Portraits of Gide, Genet, Tintoretto and Baudelaire, his revolutionary approach to biography. There could be no better introduction to one of the greatest witnesses to the twentieth century.<
