Fuck this guy and anyone who likes him. Fuck The Stranger/The Outsider/The Whatever The Fuck It's Called. It's not raw. It's not human. It's posh pseudo existentialism and absurdism written feeling like it's been written by an angsty teenagers or retarded pretentious pseudo intellectual frog. Or both really. It's fucking shit and boring.

What are some short books I can read that would be as pleasurable an experience as Camus' The Outsider? Was nice as fuck to read.

Why is /lit/ obsessed with disparaging entry-level stuff when most people here are obviously not that well read themselves. I doubt the average poster here has read more than 100~ books.

ITT: We prove philosophers wrong

For instance Camus, life cannot be meaningless because if it were why would God/whatever put us here in the first place?

Is The Rebel worth reading?

I was severely disappointed with The Myth of Sisyphus, much of it appeared to me as incoherent babble attempting to appear intellectual.

In The Plague, Camus says that there is more to admire in man than to despise. What do you guys think? Is such a judgement even possible?
