Features: The five novels and one essay included in this book are all representative works of Sartre. Published by our press on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of his death, it serves not only as a tribute to this great writer but also as a convenient way for readers to understand and study Sartre. Sartre was one of the transitional figures in the French literary tradition, whose novels broke away from the traditional French writing style led by Balzac but were not as avant-garde as modern French novels. His novels, though featuring plots, characters, and narratives, show a tendency toward ambiguity and vagueness, with a strong sense of randomness.
