Have you read First Man or A Happy Death? I've only read Myth, Stranger and EATK.

I'm kinda new to Camus but yeah I'm downloading some of his memes and they're pretty good so far. I could get into this guy maybe, or not, I don't know

I bought practically the complete works on sale at my local bookshop. Luckily his works are pretty short so you could read through them all in a month or less. I like what I've read so far.

Camus is dope. The Plague is fantastic and the absurdist cope is one of the best lenses through which to view this existence.
Also, he is hot.

Is The Plague anything like the game Pathologic in it's atmosphere/theme? I fucking love Pathologic.

The two are not really very similar as far as I can tell. But the Plague is a good story that is worth reading.

>> No.18155936

I'm surprised at how many posters mention the plague. The stranger is usually most associated with him.

The way people constantly misinterpret Camus is the best part. Some guy used to post screen shots of a chart on Wikipedia to explain Camus cause he couldn’t figure out how the books worked.
