Product Information

A New York Times "Ten Best Books of 2016" From the best-selling author of How to Live , a spirited account of one of the twentieth century's major intellectual movements and the revolutionary thinkers who came to shape it Paris, 1933: three contemporaries meet over apricot cocktails at the Bec-de-Gaz bar on the rue Montparnasse. They are the young Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, and longtime friend Raymond Aron, a fellow philosopher who raves to them about a new conceptual framework from Berlin called Phenomenology. "You see," he says, "if you are a phenomenologist you can talk about this cocktail and make philosophy out of it " It was this simple phrase that would ignite a movement, inspiring Sartre to integrate Phenomenology into his own French, humanistic sensibility, thereby creating an entirely new philosophical approach inspired by themes of radical freedom, authentic being, and political activism. This movement would sweep through the jazz clubs and caf s of the Left Bank before making its way across the world as Existentialism. Featuring not only philosophers, but also playwrights, anthropologists, convicts, and revolutionaries, At the Existentialist Caf follows the existentialists' story, from the first rebellious spark through the Second World War, to its role in postwar liberation movements such as anticolonialism, feminism, and gay rights. Interweaving biography and philosophy, it is the epic account of passionate encounters--fights, love affairs, mentorships, rebellions, and long partnerships--and a vital investigation into what the existentialists have to offer us today, at a moment when we are once again confronting the major questions of freedom, global responsibility, and human authenticity in a fractious and technology-driven world.

Reviews
"Brisk and perceptive...A fresh, invigorating look into complex minds and a unique time and place."  --Kirkus Reviews  (starred review) Praise for  How To Live Winner of the 2010 National Book Critics Circle Award for Biography "This charming biography shuffles incidents from Montaigne's life and essays into twenty thematic chapters . . . Bakewell clearly relishes the anthropological anecdotes that enliven Montaigne's work, but she handles equally well both his philosophical influences and the readers and interpreters who have guided the reception of the essays." -- The   New Yorker "Serious, engaging, and so infectiously in love with its subject that I found myself racing to finish so I could start rereading the  Essays  themselves . . . It is hard to imagine a better introduction--or reintroduction--to Montaigne than Bakewell's book." --Lorin Stein,  Harper's Magazine "Ms. Bakewell's new book,  How to Live , is a biography, but in the form of a delightful conversation across the centuries." -- The New York Times "So artful is Bakewell's account of [Montaigne] that even skeptical readers may well come to share her admiration." -- The New York Times Book Review, "Brisk and perceptive...A fresh, invigorating look into complex minds and a unique time and place."  --Kirkus Reviews  (starred review) "Bakewell brilliantly explains 20th-century existentialism through the extraordinary careers of the philosophers who devoted their lives and work to 'the task of responsible alertness' and 'questions of human identity, purpose, and freedom.' Through vivid characterizations and a clear distillation of dense philosophical concepts, Bakewell embeds the story of existentialism in the 'story of a whole European century,' dramatizing its central debates of authenticity, rebellion, freedom, and responsibility."  --Publishers Weekly  (starred review) Praise for  How To Live Winner of the 2010 National Book Critics Circle Award for Biography "This charming biography shuffles incidents from Montaigne's life and essays into twenty thematic chapters . . .

[ At the Existentialist Café ] focuses upon key individuals--Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, and Martin Heidegger--and on their interactions with each other and with the historical circumstances of the harsh twentieth century. With coverage of friendship, travel, argument, tragedy, drugs, Paris, and, of course, lots of sex, Bakewell's biographical approach pays off... The result is an engaging story about a group of passionate thinkers, and a reminder of their continued relevance." - Booklist (starred review) "Tremendous...rigorous and clarifying...Highly recommended for anyone who thinks."  --Library Journal  (starred review) Praise for  How To Live Winner of the 2010 National Book Critics Circle Award for Biography "This charming biography shuffles incidents from Montaigne's life and essays into twenty thematic chapters . . .
