Sinossi
Una critica audace del comunismo e di come sia andato storto dietro la cortina di ferro, il saggio di Camus esamina le rivoluzioni in Francia e Russia e sostiene che, poiché entrambe erano colpevoli di aver prodotto tirannia e corruzione, la speranza per il futuro risiede solo nella rivolta senza rivoluzione. Nel corso della storia, alcuni libri hanno cambiato il mondo. Hanno trasformato il modo in cui vediamo noi stessi e gli altri. Hanno ispirato dibattiti, dissenso, guerra e rivoluzione. Hanno illuminato, indignato, provocato e confortato. Hanno arricchito vite e le hanno distrutte. Ora Penguin vi offre le opere dei grandi pensatori, pionieri, radicali e visionari le cui idee hanno scosso la civiltà e ci hanno aiutato a diventare ciò che siamo.

Informazioni sull?autore
Albert Camus (1913-60) grew up in a working-class neighbourhood in Algiers. He studied philosophy at the University of Algiers, and became a journalist. His most important works include The Outsider, The Myth of Sisyphus, The Plague and The Fall. After the occupation of France by the Germans in 1941, Camus became one of the intellectual leaders of the Resistance movement. He was killed in a road accident, and his last unfinished novel, The First Man, appeared posthumously.
