Born in Algeria in 1913, Albert Camus published The Stranger–now one of the most widely read novels of this century–in 1942. Celebrated in intellectual circles, Camus was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1957. On January 4, 1960, he was killed in a car accident.
Albert Camus’s spare, laconic masterpiece about a Frenchman who murders an Arab in Algeria is famous for having diagnosed, with a clarity almost scientific, that condition of reckless alienation and spiritual exhaustion that characterized so much of twentieth-century life.
Possessing both the force of a parable and the excitement of a perfectly executed thriller, The Stranger is the work of one of the most engaged and intellectually alert writers of the past century.
Translated by Matthew Ward
"Matthew Ward has done Camus and us a great service. This is now a different and better novel for its American readers."--Chicago Sun Times

评分每個男人都是在那樣的瞬間想結婚吧
评分伟大的(只能用这个词形容)作品,人生的每个阶段看都有种颠覆世界观的震撼!局外人从初一第一次接触,就陪伴了我所有生活中的黑暗面,这段时间又不停重温93英文译本,写读书笔记时不知不觉几乎要把正本书都抄完。只有这种时候会觉得如果学了法语就太好了。
评分for the first time, the first, I laid my heart open to the benign indifference of the universe.
评分Thrilling.
