«El extranjero» is the novel by Albert Camus, published by El País in hardback (142 pages, in Spanish).
Meursault receives a telegram announcing the death of his mother and attends the funeral without showing the expected grief. Days later, on a beach in Algeria, he takes a man's life. At the trial, his coldness and lack of remorse weigh more than the crime: he is condemned not only for killing, but for not feeling.
El extranjero was originally published in 1942 under the title L'Étranger. This edition belongs to the Clásicos del Siglo XX collection (no. 25).
For readers interested in classic fiction and philosophy; suggested reading age from 16 years.
