«El extranjero» is the philosophical novel by Albert Camus, published by Publicaciones Prensa Gráfica in paperback (118 pages, in Spanish).
«El extranjero» follows Meursault, an office worker in Algiers, after the death of his mother and through the trial for a violent act he commits without clear motivation. The novel, narrated in the first person, exposes his emotional detachment, his refusal to feign feelings, and the clash between his sincerity and social conventions.
The translated text comes from the original French «L’Étranger», published in 1942; this Spanish edition belongs to the Biblioteca de Premios Nobel collection.
A work commonly read in schools and universities, for those interested in the philosophy of the absurd and the twentieth-century French novel.
Albert Camus was a French philosopher, writer, and political activist. He was the recipient of the 1957 Nobel Prize in Literature at the age of 44, the second-youngest recipient in history, and the first laureate in literature born in Africa. His works include The Stranger, The Plague, The Myth of Sisyphus, The Fall and The Rebel.
