Nausea
Sartre’s “Nausea” plunges readers into the mind of Antoine Roquentin, a historian grappling with an overwhelming sense of existential dread. I found myself captivated by Sartre’s raw exploration of consciousness and the absurdity of existence. Through Antoine’s journal entries, we witness his struggle to find meaning in a world that suddenly feels alien and oppressive. The vivid descriptions of his nausea-inducing experiences left me feeling both unsettled and oddly enlightened. A challenging but rewarding read that still resonates today.
