I guarantee that's not even the good translation.

L'etrange is pretty fucking solid imo. I never read the outsider but that isn't a good book from him if you didn't like it. His good books you would want to read more from.

The outsider is L'étranger

Every work of existentialism is high school edgelord tier. That's why they teach it to high schoolers.

I thought it was good but edgy
7.5/10 would be my rating.

The Fall is great. Still edgy, though.

Its a great book with intense underlying messages besides the absurdism, you should read a happy death by him, it helps illuminate what Camus' philosophy on life is.

Ignore the bandwagoning memers.

isn't it stay gold?

Why do most people read this book so wrong? It's like they read the first half and then pretend the second didn't happen. Camus' philosophy really isn't edgy, and while the more humane parts of his philosophy don't come into it until his second novel it should still be clear to see that the second part of the book is radically different from the first, and could almost be called an indictment of it.

I'm reading this right now. On chapter 6 of part one.

The apathetic response Mersault has to his mother's death reminds me a lot of my own response to my grandmother's death.
