I’m curious about what led you to look up Camus.

A writer for my parent's local newspaper had the revised Swedish translation of his notebooks as one of their favorite books of the year. I was vaguely aware of him as another one of those French thinkers I will never get around to read, although I ended up downloading The Plague after reading through his wiki page.

"The plague" became a new best seller in France with the covid.. but with Camus you must read "the stranger".. if you're not hook, on the very first line, you can give up. But you'll be hook

The Plague seems so relevant right now!
