Excerpt
Gordon Marino, The Existentialist’s Survival Guide: How to Live Authentically in an Inauthentic Age. New York: HarperOne, 2018. $25.99. 272 pp.…Marino, director of the Hong Kierkegaard Library at St. Olaf College and boxing correspondent for The Wall Street Journal, recasts the practical takeaways existentialism offers for the twenty-first century. From negotiating angst, depression, despair, and death to practicing faith, morality, and love, Marino dispenses wisdom on how to face existence head-on while keeping our hearts intact, especially when the universe feels like it’s working against us and nothing seems to matter.
