"The Stranger" by Albert Camus follows the life of Meursault, a detached and emotionally indifferent man living in Algiers. The narrative begins with the death of his mother, which he faces with an unexpected lack of grief. As Meursault navigates through life, including a budding romance and a senseless murder, his existential beliefs come to light. The story explores themes of absurdism, the meaning of life, and the human condition, culminating in Meursault’s trial, where his character and relationship to society ultimately define his fate, challenging readers to confront their own understanding of morality and existence.
