Overview
Jean-Paul Sartre's famous autobiography of his first ten years has been widely compared to Rousseau's Confessions. Written when he was fifty-nine years old, The Words is a masterpiece of self-analysis. Sartre the philosopher, novelist and playwright brings to his own childhood the same rigor of honesty and insight he applied so brilliantly to other authors. Born into a gentle, book-loving family and raised by a widowed mother and doting grandparents, he had a childhood which might be described as one long love affair with the printed word. The Words explores and evaluates the whole use of books and language in human experience.The book, The Words: The Autobiography of Jean-Paul Sartre [Bulk, Wholesale, Quantity] ISBN#9780394747095 in Paperback by Jean-Paul Sartre may be ordered in bulk quantities.
