Jean-Paul Sartre is one of the undisputed giants of twentieth century philosophy. His tumultuous personal life - so inextricably bound up with his philosophical thinking- is a fascinating tale of love, lust, drug abuse, high profile fallings out and political rebellion. This meticulously researched biography is fast-paced, entertaining, often amusing and sometimes deeply moving. Existentialism and Excess covers Sartre's remarkable seventy-five-year life from his early precocious years, through his time as a brilliant student in Paris, his wilderness years as a provincial teacher, his World War II adventures, and his decline into blindness and old age.
