Can Meursault, the main character of Albert Camus's The Stranger, be compared to Frederic Henry, the main character of Ernest Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms? It seems to me they share a lack of humanity. The scene in which Henry shoots the deserting Sergeant, seemingly without any emotion or remorse, strongly reminded me of Meursault shooting the Arab. Disturbing shit.
