"The first complete translation of Albert Camus's personal notebooks written between 1933 and 1959, including new material never before published in English. Throughout his career, French writer and philosopher Albert Camus kept a series of notebooks that offer an unrivaled glimpse into the writer at his most personal and reflective. These notebooks contain his thoughts on politics, solitude, personal failings and regrets, his travels, and his relationships with friends and rivals. They also offer insight into his process as a thinker-his frustrations, his ideas for novels and plays (some pursued and others abandoned), his routines, his aspirations, and self-recriminations. For Camus devotees, there is no more intimate experience than reading these notebooks. On the one hand, his fallibility is on full display: he is irritated by mediocrity, frustrated with his health, plagued by insomnia, and miserable about life's petty necessities. Yet, he is also intensely curious and observant, sometimes moved to rapture by landscapes and people. Readers will experience the bounty of Camus's philosophical imagination and will witness firsthand how his ideas take shape. The notebooks contain drafts of letters to friends and recorded reflections on the compromises that being in the world demands. This publication marks the first time Camus's complete notebooks have been published in one comprehensive volume. Expertly and movingly translated by Ryan Bloom with extensive footnotes contextualizing the entries, The Complete Notebooks will remain a literary treasure for years to come"--
