Writer's List Classic: the Outsider

About This Novel

"My mother died today. Maybe it was yesterday, I don't know." I am Meursault, an ordinary company employee. I love my mom, but I didn't cry at the funeral. When I got home the next day, I had a party with my girlfriend Mary. Afterward, she asked me if I loved her, and I said no. On the eve of my wedding, a friend I just met invited me to go to the beach. On the way, I fired five shots and killed a stranger. After being imprisoned and sentenced to death, I chose not to appeal. People say I'm cold, selfish, and stubborn. This may be absurd, but it is my real life - I just want to live my true self, even if I become an outsider in your eyes!
