Odgoda / Riječi

Jean-Paul Sartre

In 1964, Sartre refused the Nobel Prize, which was awarded to him precisely for Words. This book has no equal in autobiographical literature.

The postponement, which takes place at the end of September 1938 in the week preceding the capitulating Munich Agreement, is the result of the painful experience of war, an experience that matures Sartre's awareness of the futility of freedom that would be exclusively individual, awareness of the inseparability of freedom and responsibility in a given historical situation. This novel is part of a trilogy called Paths of Freedom.

The Autobiography of Words is Sartre's literary masterpiece, a synthesis of Sartre the philosopher and writer. It is the history of his education and upbringing, unique in that he writes about himself as a child with irony. It is an equally interesting document about Sartre as a man, written without the slightest smugness, as well as a great essay on literary creativity. The words are at the same time an autobiography and a parody of autobiography, a real celebration of reading.
