The Thirst for Authenticity: How Simone de Beauvoir's Insights Help You Become Yourself
14.99 €
This is not just a story about one of the most prominent representatives of French existentialism; it is an attempt to look at my own life through the lens of Simone de Beauvoir's philosophy. Philosopher and writer Skye Cleary shares how existentialist ideas helped her overcome difficulties and find a way out of many life impasses. A key concept of this philosophy is authenticity—something worth striving for. However, finding oneself is a difficult task, especially for women. Growing up, love, marriage, motherhood, aging—each of these experiences can be the beginning of self-realization or, conversely, a reason to abandon it. As Skye Cleary writes, authenticity gives us the opportunity to create the future we choose.
