A Shoreless Realism

A Realism Without Shores is an important work by Roger Garaudy, containing his profound thoughts on art and reality. When it was published, the book was considered both an ending and a beginning, attracting attention with the concepts it challenged and introduced. Garaudy is not someone who is moved by a poem by Saint-John Perse or affected by a painting by Picasso; his view of art is shaped by his understanding of good and evil, the reasons for existence, and his deep connection with the suffering masses. In a world where science tries to mask arbitrary behaviors and dogmatism tries to give art a face, this work is an event in itself. Enriched by Louis Aragon's foreword and Mehmet H. Doğan's translation, this valuable work opens new horizons for readers.
