""Campbell and Abergel give us an especially careful translation of these journals that include self-interpretations, thoughts on the history of philosophy, observations on the atomic age, and enigmatic linguistic experiments.""—Richard Polt, author of Time and Trauma: Thinking Through Heidegger in the Thirties ""This intriguing, fascinating book immerses us in Heidegger's internal deliberations, self-clarifications, and candid remarks about his works and interests. The rigorous, inventive translation embraces the challenge of his claim that his writings are 'absolutely untranslatable.'""—Pol Vandevelde, author of Heidegger and the Romantics: The Literary Invention of Meaning
