Representaion In Favor Of Books The Reprieve (Les Chemins de la Liberté #2)

In this book Sartre uses a really interesting technique in which he switches instantaneously from a character to another one even in the middle of the sentence.
We are in France, just before the beginning of the 2nd world war, and Sartre tries to describe what is happening from many different point of views.
The technique used in this book reminds me the counterpoint technique in music, in which different voices coexist and intertwine maintaining their individuality.
These continuos switch between the various characters creates a gestalt, something that is more than the sum of the single voices of the characters, Sartre creates invisible links that nearly create poetry.

I had never read a book using this literary technique and I like it very much, I think it has a great potentiality and if somebody read other books that used it please write them in the comments,
Thank you!

Much better than the first book of this trilogy. This text is worth reading solely for the style Sartre uses to move between character's who are all experiencing the moments leading up to Hitler's "reclaiming" the Sudeten Germans from Czechoslovakia and the signing of the Munich Agreement on September 30, 1938. It's Europe right before it all went sour. Of course, all the readers know where the lives of Sartre's characters are leading, but the characters don't; and while you might think this

---------------------------------------This novel is the second book of Sartre's "Roads to Freedom" trilogy: "The Age of Reason"; "The Reprieve", and "Troubled Sleep". The trilogy is over-simply described as an historical fiction occurring among the events leading to, and including, France's experience of World War II. A handful of protagonists recur throughout.In "The Reprieve" these familiar fictional protagonists interact with their fates (and Europe's) as war with Germany is anticipated, and



OK, I get the simultaneity of actions, characters not left to their own devices, moved by events foreign to their selves, drinking, acting out, making love and shitting their pants. But reading paragraphs which start with Mathieu, follow to Hitler and end up with Lola is rather uncomfortable. Not to Sartre apparently - he makes his point.

Just pretend the age of reason is a standalone

What a shame when pretentiousness ruins a book! This would have been such a good book had it not been written by Sartre who, apparently, made it his life's goal to sound smart and incomprehensible. After having read some five of his books, I really do think he was a much better philosopher than writer.
