Summary

In this inspired book, the eminent Polish author Witold Gombrowicz reflects on seven great philosophers. He discusses Kant, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Kierkegaard, Sartre, and Heidegger in six "one-hour" essays, then allows Marx a short "fifteen-minute" piece. "Brilliantly, savagely funny. . . . Gombrowicz is that rare writer in whom the weight of a powerful intellect is leavened by both linguistic daring and an infectious sense of whimsy."Benjamin Paloff,The Nation "[This book] is like the course in philosophy you wish you had taken."David Lehman,Bloomberg News "Vintage Gombrowicz: concise, sober, lucid, and radically agnostic."Ewa Thompson,Slavic and East European Journal "A must for every reader of Gombrowicz."Denis Hollier, New York University
