Le mur
The main character Pablo Ibbieta, is a prisoner set to be shot
by the Phalangists of General Franco at the beginning of the civil
war. But they promise to free him, if he reveals the hiding place
of his friend Ramon Gris. Pablo refuses, but as a prank he invents
a hiding place: the cemetery. But unfortunately, this is exactly
where Ramon Gris is hiding!
Sartre gives a vivid impression of the characters' thoughts, fears
and memories. And the book illustrates the basis of the so-called
existentialist philosophy.
