by Jean-Paul Sartre, Michel Contat, Alexandre Astruc
A transcription of a film of Sartre discussing various issues with
fellow intellectuals. It’s an interesting look at his development from
moralist, to realist, to moralist for the masses, and it also depicts
him working at galvanizing the masses & protesting oppressive
actions in the late ‘60s. There’s also a short analysis of works such
as Nausea & Being and Nothingness, which I haven’t read – but it’s a
start on understanding them, anyway. An intriguing book, if
(necessarily, because it’s conversations) choppy and disjointed in
structure.
