"The Stranger" is a novella written by French writer Albert Camus. By creating the image of Morsot, an "outsider" who behaves shockingly and speaks deviantly, it fully reveals the absurdity of the world and the opposition between man and society.
"The Plague" is an important work by Camus. By describing the story of a large number of people represented by the protagonist Dr. Rieux struggling to fight after the plague broke out in a city called Oran in North Africa, it vividly demonstrates the spirit of liberal humanitarianism of those true brave men who are neither desperate nor dejected, who rise up in absurdity and insist on truth and justice in despair.
Reader comments
Both of these books are very good! Meursault in "The Stranger" impressed me deeply. His line "I know there is no place for me in this world, but why do you judge my soul?" Is really shocking. "The Plague" is also great. Dr. Rieux's persistence and struggle in the face of the plague made me see the brilliance of human nature. Both books made me think more deeply about life and society.
