Mention - Book News, February 2009 ... it is the merit of this book to persistently return time and again to the radical and utter finitude of existence that confronts us in the 'event' of our original temporality, opening as it does onto the groundless abyss of nothingness and exposing us to the awesome and overwhelming face of 'matters themselves' (Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Theodore Kisiel)
