Camus: The Stranger (Landmarks of World Literature… door Patrick McCarthy
I really liked Ward's interpretation of this work. You should purchase Ward's version. Camus' book is well written and insightful. Death has its presence throughout but in an ironic way is not feared by the protagonist (at least by the end of the book). Meaninglessness? Well, this book has many meanings due to it's literary depth. Enjoy!
Well, this book didn't really do it for me. If it was meant to embody the supposed meaninglessness of life, then I guess it succeeded. Personally, I prefer the Seinfeldian version of life's meaninglessness. Still, I would recommend it to anyone who loves books. Why? Read it and submit your best guess.
A haunting tail about an Algerian man named Meursault living in france. The book was written just after WWII and is primarily a character piece. Meursault is one of the most frustratingly dispassionate characters that I have experienced in literature. Camus' use of language is fantastic.
