«La Peste» is the novel by Albert Camus, published by Orbis in hardback (237 pages, in Spanish).
In the Algerian city of Oran, an epidemic of bubonic plague forces its inhabitants into confinement. Doctors and neighbors face fear, isolation, and death, and Camus turns that collective struggle into an allegory of the Nazi occupation and a reflection on solidarity and human resistance.
This Spanish-language edition, published in 1983, is part of the Los Premios Nobel collection (no. 9) and includes the translation by Rosa Chacel.
