"Jacqueline Rose trenchant new book unravels recent history via the lives and works of three extraordinary thinkers Albert Camus, Sigmund Freud, and Simone Weil, each one afflicted by catastrophe. Their politics and private griefs, the depth of their understanding, fling open a window into our present crises.
