description
s into the existentialist and absurdist themes prevalent in French literature, set against the backdrop of colonial Algeria. Through the protagonist, Meursault, Camus explores the depths of alienation, portraying a man detached from societal norms and the conventional moral code. Meursault embodies indifference, facing life with a sense of nihilism and an absence of empathy towards others. His existence is marked by isolation, reflecting the existentialist idea of the absurdity and meaninglessness of life. The narrative takes a philosophical turn as Meursault confronts death and the inevitability of mortality, leading to a dramatic courtroom trial where his lack of emotional response is scrutinized. The absence of a traditional moral compass and the disregard for societal expectations propel the story forward, culminating in a powerful examination of human existence. Set in colonial Algeria, the novel intertwines themes of crime and existential philosophy, creating a compelling portrayal of a man navigating a world devoid of inherent meaning. "The Stranger" stands as a testament to Camus' exploration of the human condition and remains a cornerstone of existentialist literature.
