Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good Plus. First Edition Thus. 1962. First edition thus. 238pp. 'Nausea' is Sartre's first novel, first published in French in 1938 and in English under the title of 'The Diary of Antoine Roqeuntin' in 1949. This new English edition has been translated by Lloyd Alexander and published under its original French title. It is a philosophical novel that takes place in 'Bouville', a town similar to Le Havre. It comprises the thoughts and subjective experiences - in a personal diary format?of Antoine Roquentin, a melancholic and socially isolated intellectual who is residing in Bouville ostensibly for the purpose of completing a biography on a historical figure. Roquentin's growing alienation and disillusionment coincide with an increasingly intense experience of revulsion, which he calls "the nausea", in which the people and things around him seem to lose all their familiar and recognizable qualities. The book is bound in the original maroon paper covered boards with gold titling on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with light bumping to the spine ends and a heavy bump to the top front corner that has caused a crease in the board across the corner. There is a 1/2" dent on the bottom edge of the rear board near the spine corner and a split of about 1/2" to the paper on the top of the front spine edge. The contents are tight and clean with two small black ink stains on the fore edge of the text block and one of the stains extends into the fore edge of the rear free endpaper. There is no inscription. The unclipped dustwrapper has shelf wear and some soiling and the spine is sunned. The back of the wrapper has black ink staining near the fore edge, a water stain on the bottom edge, and a previous owner has written a note below one of the reviews of other books by Sartre. There is some red staining on the reverse of the bottom rear edge. The spine ends are bumped, chipped and nicked, and pieces are missing from around the spine corners of the top of the spiine. There are a few tears of up to about 3/4" on the edges and most have been repaired on the reverse with document repair tape.

General modest wear to covers, wrapper spine strengthened at lower front joint, small stain on front free endpaper, pages browned per usual, overall a bright Very Good copy.*** Sartre s first novel, a cornerstone of modern existentialist literature. It follows the student, Roquentin, as he navigates a struggle to make meaning of his life.*** "For Sartre, every individual has total freedom over life, the ability to choose different paths at different moments. The ultimate choice is to choose being that is, existence over nothingness. It is a choice that is common to all, and by determining on creating a redemptive piece of art at the close of Nausea, Roquentin asserts his choice for existence over nothingness. It appears almost a non-choice on first examination, but it is in fact the largest of choices and the one that binds all humans together in a shared complicity to exist, to repress the nausea.
