Demonstrably incorrect. "The stranger" is easily top ten pseud /lit/core.

Not so fast. I just ordered the Everyman edition of his works. I'll be spamming his face every day until you remember. You may remember me from when I posted a thread about The Stranger.

First, I'll read The Plague. I will post a thread comparing it to COVID-19 with absolutely no accompanying critical commentary whatsoever.

Then, I will read The Fall and ask you what I thought of it. This step is crucial, or I won't earn my pseud cred

Finally, I will read the first story in Exile and the Kingdom, skip the rest, and skip the Myth of Sisyphus as it totally challenges the worldview I saw affirmed in The Stranger

Then I will post another thread about The Stranger

The Stranger sucked, it was clear that he wanted push his ideas rather than actually write something good. Summer and his travelogues where pretty nice though. I think I read The Plague as well but I don't remember a single thing about it.

the stranger isn't pseud, no one pretends it's more than a fun read. pseud would be Joyce and Hegel, since no one actually reads those

Because every time we discussed his doompill lit outside of the semi-coping Myth of Sisyphus, some passive-aggressive faggots would keep telling us we don't understand him and redirect conversation back to his more cope-ish takes on absurdism in the latter half of the Myth, as if a writer's entire body of literature must be one single-faceted idea or as if you can't appreciate an articulation of a problem but reject the solution.
So many of us just joined Team Cioran and haven't looked back.
