Description
Ostensibly, "A Literary Review" is a straightforward commentary by Søren Kierkegaard on the work of a contemporary novelist. On deeper levels, however, it becomes the existential philosopher's far-reaching critique of his society and age, and its apocalyptic final sections inspired the central ideas in Martin Heiddeger's influential work "Being and Time." Embraced by many readers as prophetic, "A Literary Review" and its concepts remain relevant to our current debates on identity, addiction, and social conformity.
