What We Say: Camus delves into the challenges of societal norms and reflects upon the absurdity of existence in Algeria. His protagonist, Meursault, is indifferent to his own life, his mother’s death, and even his own act of committing murder. Camus weaves a narrative that has left an indelible impression on the minds and hearts of philosophers to this day, invoking the complexity of existence. He invites readers into the brilliantly absurd world of The Stranger to question the purpose of everything.
