door_1533's review against another edition

Camus sait faire sentir l'ennui de la quarantaine et du confinement. La pesanteur de la chose mais justement c'est trop pesant. Et je n'ai pas réussi à m'attacher aux personnages ntmt Tarrou dont je ne suis pas sûre d'avoir saisi la philosophie..

Reading Camus is like reading Zola. While they are not entirely the same thing, you can find their books for 50 cents a piece and you're never disappointed to pick one up. Beautiful descriptions, simple yet real characters. 100 times better than any philosophical essay, should be on every shelf.

This was such a beautiful piece of literature to consume. I have no words, I feel too much and I will probably remember this book forever. My first time reading Camus' work and I loved it.
