Plague (translated Classic)
About This Novel
The mature works of Nobel Prize winner Camus. This book includes the novel "The Plague" and the play "Martial Law", which is also about the plague. The reason why these two Camus works are collected into a volume is because they both belong to the "Resistance Series" and because the themes are related to the plague. "The Plague" uses a chronological structure to narrate the beginning and end of the plague in Oran City. Camus used precise writing to describe the subtle changes in human mentality when facing a catastrophic disaster. At the same time, he portrayed the rescue team headed by Dr. Rieux. They are all ordinary little people, but in the most simple moral spirit, they help each other and help others. "Martial Law" is Camus's important exploration in drama. If there was a real epidemic in "The Plague", then in "Martial Law", the plague turned into the god of death, and this disease contained more meanings.
