Discover a new understanding of Kierkegaard's thought and his life,
a story filled with romance, betrayal, humor, and riots.
Kierkegaard, like Einstein and Freud, is one of those geniuses
whose ideas permeate the culture and shape our world even when
relatively few people have read their works. That lack of
familiarity with the real Kierkegaard is about to change. This
lucid new biography by scholar Stephen Backhouse presents the
genius as well as the acutely sensitive man behind the brilliant
books. Scholarly and accessible, Kierkegaard: A Single Life
introduces his many guises-the thinker, the lover, the recluse, the
writer, the controversialist-in prose so compelling it reads like a
novel. One chapter examines Kierkegaard's influence on our greatest
cultural icons-Kafka, Barth, Bonhoeffer, Camus, and Martin Luther
King Jr., to name only a few. A useful appendix presents an
overview of each of Kierkegaard's works, for the scholar and lay
reader alike.
