Query: What is the big deal

What is the big deal? I read this book because a college age acquaintance had mentioned it was on a required reading list for one of his classes. In researching the book I found it is high on the list of existential writings. I got nothing out of it other than perhaps how empty existentialism is. No wonder students drop out of college and feel they are wasting their money. America is producing some fabulous literature yet there is an old guard that clings to all that is bleak in life. May I recommend Victor Frankle’s Man’s Search for Meaning? This is a much better and true account of the human spirit and what it can accomplish. If you have to read this to in class to placate the instructor do so but do not hesitate to counter with truth, hope and optimism and do not accept this as real life.
