Summary

"All Things are Possible" by Lev Shestov is a philosophical exploration of what it means to be human and the struggle to find meaning in a confusing world. Through complex writing, Shestov questions whether logic and reason can truly help us understand ourselves, targeting European rationalism and its influence. He imagines a world where people must struggle to find their own way, criticizing the usual dependence on logic and accepted ideas that keep us from really knowing ourselves. The book suggests that real freedom comes from accepting the messy parts of life, instead of only following what society tells us is right.

About the Author

Lev Isaakovich Shestov was a Jewish-Russian existentialist and religious philosopher. He is best known for his critiques of both philosophic rationalism and positivism. His work advocated a movement beyond reason and metaphysics, arguing that these are incapable of conclusively establishing truth about ultimate problems, including the nature of God or existence. Contemporary scholars have associated his work with the label "anti-philosophy."
