وصف الناشر
The Stranger is a 1942 novella by French author Albert Camus. Its theme and outlook are often cited as examples of Camus' philosophy, absurdism, coupled with existentialism; though Camus personally rejected the latter label.
Through the story of an ordinary man unwittingly drawn into a senseless murder on an Algerian beach, Camus explored what he termed "the nakedness of man faced with the absurd." First published in English in 1946; now in a new translation by Matthew Ward.
Translated four times into English, and also into numerous other languages, the novel has long been considered a classic of 20th-century literature. Le Monde ranks it as number one on its 100 Books of the Century.
The novel was twice adapted as films: Lo Straniero (1967) (Italian) by Luchino Visconti and Yazgı (2001, Fate) by Zeki Demirkubuz (Turkish).

Simple and Profound
The writing is so clear and intelligible around issues that are so complicated for human beings. Ultimately none of this is resolved, which is probably the way it is for reflective human beings.
The Stranger
I was very excited to read this book. I found this book to be incredibly stupid, almost pointless. The guy feels nothing… we get it. He kills somebody, doesn’t care, gets sent to death. Wow! What a page turner. People say this is one of the greatest books ever. Ugh, couldn’t pay to read to that snooze fest again.
