The author of "the existentialist Cafe" said the absurdity was the court's disregard for human life. I thought the absurdity was that they disregarded human life while wearing underwear

One of my favorite books ever, but I read it high on hashish and got it as surrealism.

Meursault made me really uncomfortable. He didn't feel human, he felt like an alien, an outsider, a stranger. I fully agreed with the priest's speech at the end

The Stranger is the ideal we all aspire to but never quite attain. I wish I could epicly own a priest like that with my based atheism.

not only boring but also bad analysis of existentialism. People really pretend they like this book it's wild

This is a top 10 book for when you wake up in rehab or a psych ward.

Passion
The burning sun brought him back to the heat during his mother's funeral.
The prosecutor was wrong in saying that he did not love his mother.

His own Big Moor Cock fantasies flashed before his eyes after the first shot and he started firing again in hopes of putting those ideas to rest. Instead, Marie just ends up fucking someone else, potentially a Moor. Poetry.

This book is just The Trial but worse (still good though)

I genuinely could not understand why Meursault didn't argue for a case of self-defense. The whole debacle could have potentially been avoided but he just let things get worse

I found it somehow relatable.

>And just then when a random beam of sunlight pierced his eyes, Mersault realized he was truly The Stranger all along.

Immediately chucked that trash into the garbage and challenged the French Canadian faggot who lives down the hall from me to a duel.
