Download or read book Aden, Arabie written by Paul Nizan and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aden, Arabie is the story of a man who attempts to flee bourgeois life in France by seeking exoticism in the Middle East. His trip is a failure; the freedom of travel is exposed as an illusion. This account is based on Nizan's own trip to Arabia and has been resurrected through the efforts of Jean-Paul Sartre. In Aden, Arabie, Nizan came to understand that everywhere-in Arabia as in France-oppressive forces drain us of our humanity.
