E. M. Cioran and the Human Condition

Cioran an essential figure in confronting the apocalyptic nature of our own age. The unique combination of pessimism, dark humour and morbid wit in Cioran's writing pushes us to explore what, if any, future there is for humanity in a world becoming ever more inhuman. This is a lively and thought-provoking introduction to an unjustly marginalized thinker who has much to teach us about the human condition after the crises of the twentieth century.
