Huis Clos

In Huit-Clos, Jean-Paul Sartre makes an analysis of human-behaviour. The scene takes place in a cell where three people are faced with each other. The reader is immediatly impregnated of different personalities and understands the fears of each one to stay eternaly together because, like Jean-Paul Sartre concludes: "The hell is others."

le huis clos c' est un tres bon livre et vous conseille vivement a le lire.L 'auter traite des sujets tres interessants comme la faute de sincerite des gens quand ils n'ont pas beaucoup de pression sur eux.L'existentialisme est aussi present, mais je prefere de ne rien dire de plus et que vouz lisiez le livre.

Jean-Paul Sartre is an existentialist first, then an author. So his books are just the transposition of his philosophy on paper. In Huis Clos, Jean-Paul Sartre explores the human behavior throughout the cowardness of each man and woman that we are. Instead of facing our true reality, we are facing three people who have died and who are encaptured in a grey-looking cell, without windows, without life. Now, for the first time, they have to face each other and then they have to close their eyes to seek the conscience within them. It is very hard to dislike this book, because it is a humanist work, a book that show us the true existence of man on Earth. And I shall add that such a book with such a subject deserves at least 9 out of ten. Pascal Tremblay
