  1. Kapil Tyagi –

    A bit repetitive in places, but the core arguments are strong. A good resource for students.

  2. Srinivasa Rao Vasantula –

    I appreciated the focus on Camus’s critiques of violence. However, the writing style was a bit dry for my taste.

  3. Sweta Yadav –

    Felt a bit academic at times, but overall, a worthwhile read for understanding Camus’s relevance today.

  4. Tannu Rani –

    The exploration of nihilism was well done. I have a better understanding of Camus now.

  5. Yagya Arora –

    A solid introduction, if a bit basic for those already familiar with Camus’s work.

  6. Sameer Sharma –

    An engaging exploration of Camus’s ideas. It helped me understand his views on totalitarianism much better.

  7. Kausar Ahamed –

    Well-written and thought-provoking. A must-read for anyone interested in th-century philosophy.

  8. Kausar Ahamed –

    Excellent analysis of Camus’s concept of revolt. It’s clear that Jahanbegloo deeply understands the subject.

  9. Sanyum Chola –

    Jahanbegloo’s book made me want to reread Camus. His ideas are so relevant in our current world.

  10. Anshul Singh Vimal –

    This book beautifully highlights Camus’s enduring influence. I found the analysis of ‘the absurd’ particularly compelling.

  11. Rithik Saini –

    The book successfully connects Camus’s philosophy to contemporary issues. Highly recommended.

  12. Piyush Bhanwal –

    A good starting point for understanding Camus, but not the definitive work on the subject.

  13. Cyra Sumit –

    While informative, the book lacks a certain spark. It felt a bit too detached from Camus’s passionate spirit.

  14. Shivam –

    This book offers a fresh perspective on Camus, emphasizing his ‘unheroic’ qualities. Very insightful!

  15. Aryaman Sharma –

    A decent book, though it could have benefited from a more critical perspective on Camus’s limitations.

  16. Swapnil Lohani –

    Jahanbegloo captures Camus’s essence well. The exploration of ‘revolted compassion’ is particularly insightful.

  17. Akash Roy –

    A good overview of Camus’s philosophy, but I wish it delved deeper into his literary works. Still, a solid introduction.
