Summary: Nausea is both the story of the troubled life of a young writer, Antoine Roquentin, an exposition of one of the most influential and significant philosophical attitudes of modern times -existentialism.

A seminal work of contemporary literacy philosophy, Nausea evokes and examines the dizzying angst that can come from simply trying to live.
