About Nausea
Nausea is a philosophical novel by Jean-Paul Sartre. It was first published in 1938, met with virtually unanimous acclaim in the literary world, and brought its author international renown.
The novel takes the form of a fictional diary in which the narrator, Antoine Roquentin, describes the feeling of strangeness and powerlessness that gradually overwhelms him as he becomes aware of the futility and irrationality of existence. The story constitutes a forceful expression of Sartre’s existentialist philosophy, as he asserts that “existence precedes essence” and argues that everything exists and is created without reason. This means that it is up to us to determine who we are through our actions.
