      May 10, 2009: The book takes you through what seems to be a simple scenario but quickly shows that is not the case. It makes you think about humanity but can also be a quick read just for fun.

      April 28, 2005: ?No Exit? by Jean Paul Sartre is a one-act play write about three eternally damned souls. The setting of the story takes place in a room, containing Second-Empire furniture, deep within hell. Throughout the play the three souls torture each other relentlessly. At first none of the characters will admit to the fact that they belong in hell, but soon confess their sins. This play contains a lot of seduction and animosity. The author of this play shows how individuals tend to lie to themselves and to others. The characters in the play do not want to admit their sins to each other or to themselves for that matter. Vanity, desire, and self-righteousness are greatly displayed in this story by the damned souls trapped in the room.
