Floor and Character

A bombshell book, a sensational book. One of the most famous and ambiguous works of the 20th century. Its popularity is hard to imagine, the scale of the disputes and discussions it has provoked worldwide is impossible to fathom. It was praised by the "far-right" and condemned by suffragists and feminists, defended by natural philosophers and cursed by social philosophers. It was both hated and adored, and not reading it was considered simply indecent for any self-respecting intellectual. What could the twenty-three-year-old author have written in it, if the tumultuous and fierce discussions surrounding his name continue to this day?
