With millions of copies sold, The Stranger is one of the most widely read novels in the world. It stands as perhaps the greatest existentialist tale ever conceived.

When a young Algerian named Meursault kills a man, his subsequent imprisonment and trial are puzzling and absurd.

This remarkable translation by Matthew Ward has been considered the definitive English version since its original publication.

unbelievable post novel analysis

Maybe I'm a philistine but I just don't get what all the fuss is about.
An average novella with a bit of philosophy thrown in.
When you need an extra 30 minutes at the end for two academics
to tell you what it means and why it is so good you realise why
so many people feel they should read it.
Its cited as one of the best existentialist pieces of writing there is,
The author however hates it's existentialist label

Overrated

Whether you are familiar with the work of Albert Camus of not, this is an exceptional book. Short enough to not become tedious, absurd enough to hit just the right spot. I have not been the same after listening to this book and it will become one of those repeated listens in my library. 10/10 recommended
