Book Review

«Dirty Hands» by Jean-Paul Sartre is a powerful and provocative play that explores complex questions of morality, ideology, and personal responsibility. Critics note that Sartre masterfully uses dialogues and characters to showcase the internal conflicts of the protagonists, especially the main character Hugo, who faces a dilemma between his ideals and reality. The play raises important questions about what it means to be true to one's beliefs and how far one can go in the fight for one's ideals. Critics also emphasize that «Dirty Hands» remains relevant today, as the themes addressed in the play continue to resonate with contemporary society. Sartre skillfully combines political drama with personal tragedies, creating a profound and multilayered work that prompts reflection on difficult moral choices and their consequences.
