I’ve carried this book with me since HS: #TheStranger by #AlbertCamus.
I didn’t like how the story ended but never had a chance to air my grievances until a full debate with #ChatGPT about it:
I relate to the character so much that I refer to him as “comrade lost in battle.”

For Robert Israel, #AlbertCamus’ notebooks (University of Chicago Press) shed light on the painstaking efforts of a major 20th-century writer to archive his thoughts — his struggle to make his vision clear, his prose lucid.

At times I would give anything in the world to no longer be connected by anything to this universe of men. But I am a part of this universe, and the most courageous thing to do is to accept it and the tragedy at the same time.”
– #AlbertCamus, 'Notebooks 1951-1959'
"The tragedy is not that we are alone, but that we cannot be.
– #AlbertCamus, 'Notebooks 1951-1959'
There have been as many plagues as wars in history; yet always plagues and wars take people equally by surprise.

A photo of Albert Camus smoking a cigarette with the below quote written on a black bar covering his eyes. should i kill myself or have a cup of coffee?
Good morning!
should i kill myself or have a cup of coffee?
I have embraced the absurd and going with the coffee much to the dismay of many.

#AlbertCamus on Moral, Ethical & Existential Threats - #FarRight & White #ChristianNationalism
#Fascism appeal for its followers, Camus argues, is an aggrieved sense of entitlement; far right vs #progressive causes & “others” at their expense

"No es noble la rebelión por sí misma, sino por lo que exige".
#AlbertCamus, "El hombre rebelde".
We must mend what has been torn apart, make justice imaginable again in a world so obviously unjust, give happiness a meaning once more to peoples poisoned by the misery of the century.
- #AlbertCamus, 'Lyrical and Critical Essays'
To my delight, my hardcover first edition copy 1956 of #AlbertCamus #TheFall came in the mail today.
A quote for the messy post WW2 narrative of justice; and a quote for today's convoluted ideal of what is true & right.
This is why #literature matters

📽️ François Ozon (2025)
Meursault, le taciturne.
Spectateur de sa vie et insensible à ses propres failles, une atmosphère est correctement structurée autour d’une ville aux mille visages pour que le récit sur cet homme l’emporte.

In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer. - Albert Camus

The most loathsome #materialism is not the kind people usually think of, but the sort that attempts to let dead ideas pass for living realities, diverting into sterile myths the stubborn and lucid #attention we give to what we have within us that must forever die.

One of the literary novels I am analysing for an academic book is #AlbertCamus #TheFall.
It is the most challenging of all texts; but most intriguing.
I read it first maybe 25yrs ago, again 10yrs ago - it just stuck w/ me.
All of #Camus work has - but this one is especially enigmatic. I love it.

“I should like to be able to love my country, and still love justice.” Albert Camus, Nobel Laureate in Literature (1957),quote from Letters to a German Friend (1943)
“There are means that cannot be excused. And I should like to be able to love my country and still love justice. I don’t want just any greatness for it, particularly a greatness born of blood and falsehood. I want to keep it alive by keeping justice alive.” #AlbertCamus #quote
