The Ethics of Ambiguity by Simone de Beauvoir

challenging reflective slow-paced

3.0

I admittedly disliked the parts which I did not understand, for it seemed to me like slow and tedious passages rumbling full with jargon whose every word needs to be defined beforehand. I do not pretend being an experienced philosophy reader, so that might come into play. But strangely enough, the first part seemed to have eluded my understanding, but the second one was totally the opposite; Beauvoir can write in an understandable way...

Besides my comprehension of the text which is my main shortcoming, I do think there is a lot of wisdom in her words.  Although I do not fully agree and prefer absurdists' way of seeing existence, her philosophy has a lot to say (and even more to act upon!). Probably a great read for experienced philosophy readers...
