Camus’ THE STRANGER had a major impact on me way back in the 1970s. It’s an amazing work. I remember my philosophy instructor telling me that Camus led a very interesting and passionate life. This is his story - from the early years in French Algeria - to postwar France as famous editor, novelist and playwright. Incurable illness, torrid affairs, political intrigue, literary exploration. . . it’s all in this massive work.   #12696
