I can understand why he wanted to distance himself from this later in his career, but it did show some early promise. I don't know why this is the only Camus my Libby has :(. It's funny to see the huge influence this had on Sarte. My teenage boyfriend lent me a Sarte novel (we were both late teens) and I remember not being impressed, now I'm remembering a lot of similarities! The Stranger was better, but that's a low bar.

Cleverly written. I’m going to have to read this again to catch all the fine points, but wow. Worth it.
