Through this story of an ordinary man who unwittingly gets drawn into a senseless murder on a sundrenched Algerian beach, Camus explored what he termed the "nakedness of man faced with the absurd." In this illuminating new American translation, extraordinary for its exactitude and clarity, the original intent of The Stranger is made more immediate. Albert Camus was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1957.
