No Exit (Jean-Paul Sartre)

"NO EXIT" by Jean-Paul Sartre is a play exploring existentialist ideas about human freedom, responsibility, and self-identity. It features three characters trapped in a small room, who realize they are in hell, not with torture devices but through their psychological torment caused by their own choices and personalities. Sartre suggests that in life, we are responsible for defining ourselves through our actions, and there's no escape from facing the truth of who we are. The famous line "Hell is other people" underscores how relationships and judgments can be reflections of our own self-image and conscience.
