De vreemdeling
In De vreemdeling schiet hoofdpersoon Meursault op klaarlichte dag een man dood. Hij heeft er geen verklaring voor. In het proces dat volgt weigert hij zich fatsoenlijk te verdedigen en zich aan te passen aan de normen van de maatschappij. Uiteindelijk belandt hij in de gevangenis, waar hij zijn executie afwacht. Albert Camus (1913-1960) groeide op in een arme wijk in Algiers, studeerde filosofie en werd later journalist. In 1957 werd hij uitgeroepen tot winnaar van de Nobelprijs voor de Literatuur. Drie jaar later kwam hij om bij een auto-ongeluk. In de romans van Albert Camus wordt het absurde van de twintigsteeeuwse samenleving afgezet tegen een persoonlijke moraal van vriendschap en menselijkheid. Een of meer personages worden steevast door de loop van de gebeurtenissen, nooit uit eigen vrije wil, schuldig aan een misdaad. De vreemdeling, De pest en De val zijn de bekendste werken van Camus, en worden nog steeds veel gelezen en besproken.
