Camus Collected Works 1: the Outsider: the Myth of Sisyphus
About This Novel
"The Outsider: The Myth of Sisyphus" is the first volume of Camus's collected works translated by Guo Hongan. It includes the philosophical novel "The Outsider" and the collection of essays "The Myth of Sisyphus". "The Myth of Sisyphus the Outsider" focuses on Camus' absurd philosophy. He tried to tell people that having no hope is not the same as despair, and being awake does not lead to obedience. People should realize that their only wealth is life, and life is bound to disappear, but at the same time it can be developed as much as possible. People should and can gain the courage to survive in this world, and even happiness. The "absurdity" he proposed is "sober reason that confirms its own boundaries." He rejected eternity while affirming the beauty of the world and the joy of life.
