Series: The French List

Iconic French novelist, playwright and essayist, Jean-Paul Sartre (19051980) is widely recognized as one of the most important philosophers of the twentieth century, whose work has remained relevant and thought-provoking through the decades. The Seagull Sartre Library now presents some of his most incisive philosophical, cultural, and literary critical essays in twelve newly designed volumes.

'Venice speaks to us; this false witness' voice, shrill at times, whispering at others, broken by silences.' In these three moving short pieces, we discover Sartre as a master stylist, lyrically describing his time in two bewitching eternal cities-Venice and Rome.
