The Most Defining Characteristic Feature Of Jean Paul Sartre's Writings Is Their TRANSFORMATIVE EFFECTS ! You can't remain the same once you have read a work of Sartre !
His Was An Author of Sheer Passion and Intensity !
A Born Rebel Was He !
A man who had had the guts of refusing the highest international prize (NOBEL PRIZE) dismissing it as a 'Sack of Rotten Potatoes' !
Sartre's main contribution to our understanding of this existence lies in his iconoclastic probings n re-examinings of Humans and Their Relationship with The Cosmos !
Today Sartre Would Have Been 108 !
