@evenstarsss James Joyce. I had to read A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man and it made me so angry. It was so hard to read. If he’s not available I will take Albert Camus. The Stranger annoys me on so many levels. Sorry for the rant. HS English was hard! Lol https://t.co/rBIQo2hdsA

Praise for this book

A PARADE BEST BOOK OF ALL TIME

"The Stranger is a strikingly modern text and Matthew Ward's translation will enable readers to appreciate why Camus's stoical anti-hero and ­devious narrator remains one of the key expressions of a postwar Western malaise, and one of the cleverest exponents of a literature of ambiguity." --from the Introduction by Peter Dunwoodie
