The Existential Camus

by artzau on Sep 6, 2012

The Stranger is, alas, the title which is most often used for L'Étranger, the novel written by the randy Albert Camus, but that's misleading as the meaning in French is 'The Foreigner,' or by metaphoric implication, one can say, 'The Outsider.'

Not an upper

by bsbuchta on Apr 3, 2007

This book is definitely not a book full of sunshine and rainbows. It is, however, a very interesting look at a worldview that is held by some. It is very hard to like the protagonist, but you will most assuredly like the book itself if you enjoy thinking about the human condition, or even just reading ... More
