The Philosophical Contexts of The Wall and Other Stories presents a philosophical analysis of all five stories in Sartre's short-story collection, concentrating on characters' acts of bad faith. Kevin W. Sweeney argues that each of the five stories has its own philosophical problem that serves as the context for the narrative, and that Sartre constructs each story as a reply to the philosophical issue in the context and as support for his position on that issue.
