  • i feel camus keeps moving back and forward between exploring morality and preaching his own views
  • i feel bored multiple times. many paragraphs are wasted explaining events after events, and background characters that i just dont care about.
  • camus writing of marie is just ew
  • there's a bit of racism spice considering how camus wrote some of the witnesses attempt to convince the juries that the narrator is a kind man, yet the arab witnesses, who saw the fight before, were not called.
