Title: Dude reading Sartre?
Post by: PriorRestraint on August 13, 2013, 05:13:13 PM
Admittedly I may have a bit too much time on my hands (shrink work slows down in August), but I'm always curious to spot if possible the books that the Dude has in his home. Kind of a hint into his influences, what's contributed to his mindset, what have you.

At 1:31:40, as Maude is doing her conception yoga, you can see a fat old paperback on Dude's table. Spinning my phone around (gotta love the 21st century), you can see that across the cover is SARTRE.

So, how does the dude reading the father of existentialism (who wasn't very dudely IMO) contribute, if at all, to how we think of the foundations of Dudeism?

Also, has anyone else spotted other books they recognize or can make out in Dude's pad, other than the Japanese cookbook?
