Presents Jean-Paul Sartre's existentialist novel, first published in 1938, in which Antoine Roquentin, a French writer, chronicles his reactions to the world and people around him, which combine to give him an overpowering feeling of nausea.
Jean-Paul Sartre expounds his philosophy as a form of existentialism, with human freedom at its core; includes his commentary on Camus' "The Stranger," arguing that the work should be understood as essentially comic.
