520    "One of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth century
       and a hero of political thought, the largely unsung and 
       often misunderstood Hannah Arendt is best known for her 
       landmark 1951 book on openness in political life, The 
       Origins of Totalitarianism, which, with its powerful and 
       timely lessons for today, has become newly relevant.  She 
       led an extraordinary life. This was a woman who endured 
       Nazi persecution firsthand, survived harrowing "escapes" 
       from country to country in Europe, and befriended such 
       luminaries as Walter Benjamin and Mary McCarthy, in a 
       world inhabited by everyone from Marc Chagall and Marlene 
       Dietrich to Albert Einstein and Sigmund Freud. A woman who
       finally had to give up her unique genius for philosophy, 
       and her love of a very compromised man--the philosopher 
       and Nazi-sympathizer Martin Heidegger--for what she called
       "love of the world".  Compassionate and enlightening, 
       playful and page-turning, New Yorker cartoonist Ken 
       Krimstein's The Three Escapes of Hannah Arendt is a 
       strikingly illustrated portrait of a complex, 
       controversial, deeply flawed, and irrefutably courageous 
       woman whose intelligence and "virulent truth telling" led 
       her to breathtaking insights into the human condition, and
       whose experience continues to shine a light on how to live
       as an individual and a public citizen in troubled times."-
