In a review of Bernard-Henri Lévy's Sartre bio:

The book [B&N] owed much, including its prolixity, to Martin Heidegger, a
German contemporary of Nazi sympathies. Both tried to say general things about
the character of human thought and experience without the distortions of
misleading philosophy. Both, alas, soon gave in to tendentious theorising of
their own. Sartre's book holds up better than Heidegger's “Being and Time”
(1927), perhaps because as a novelist he was subtler about human experience.
