Book Description:

Most critics of the political evolution of Jean-Paul Sartre have laid emphasis on his allegedly sympathetic attitude to Stalinist Communism. This defense of Sartre shows his increasing involvement in the politics of the Left. Though he always distrusted Stalinism, he was sometimes driven to ally himself with it because of the force of its argument.
