About this book

A meeting among Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir and Raymond Aron in Paris introduces this account of existentialism. Sarah Bakewell combines the thinkers' lives with their philosophical ideas, including freedom, responsibility and authentic existence. The discussion connects the movement's origins with enduring questions about political engagement and individual choice.

Sarah Bakewell

Bakewell spent ten years cataloguing early printed books at the Wellcome Library before she wrote full time, and the habit of noticing the marginal and the odd shows everywhere in her work. How to Live approaches Montaigne through twenty attempts at an answer instead of a chronology, and took a National Book Critics Circle award.
