First published in 1942 by Gallimard, Albert Camus's seminal novel explores the life of Meursault, a detached French Algerian who finds himself caught in the inexorable machinery of the justice system following a senseless murder. Through a sparse and precise prose style, the narrative examines the indifference of the universe and the human struggle to find meaning within an inherently irrational existence.
