Un entretien libre entre Clement Rosset et Santiago Espinosa qui se presente comme un livre biographique et comme une introduction a l’oeuvre de Clement Rosset, autour d’une philosophie de l’approbation du reel.
In this book, Clement Rosset talks openly with Santiago Espinosa on various subjects. In a first part, consisting of five discussions, Rosset relates, with humour, the three events in his life which had the greatest impact on him and led him to pursue philosophical inquiry. This involved talking about his childhood, his love of music and literature, his years as a student at Ecole normale superieure, and later at Universite de Nice. He recalls his favourite authors, his relations with the Academie and with philosophers who were his contemporaries, and whom, on occasion, he befriended (Cioran, Deleuze, Jankelevitch, Descombes). In a second part, in view of a number of misinterpretations made by commentators about the author, two discussions strive to clarify and expand upon the concept at the heart of his philosophy: the double and the real. This, then, is both a biographical book in which Rosset talks about himself, and a basic work in which readers will discover either a conceptual supplement to books they have already read, or an introduction and invitation to read them.

"Consommant l'anecdote saupoudree d'un peu de concepts, les deux complices deconstruisent les confessions philosophiques a la mode - ou le Moi n'est plus haissable mais adorable.Dans ce livre d'entretien, Rosset fait le point. Sur sa conception de la realite. Sur la maniere avec laquelle nous peinons tous a la voir telle qu'elle est. Sa malice y est constante. Heureux sont ceux qui le decouvriront a cette occasion."
