The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays by Albert Camus

---

I'm miffed that Camus's explication of the absurd fits the way I view my existence pretty much one to one, because he's kind of annoying. Sometimes it feels like he's just flourishing for the sake of it, other times a line will really resonate with me. Skipped the essays where he just gets really horny for cities and stuff. Glad he enjoyed his time in French colonial holdings, whatever.

But still. "The point is to live." However over-explainy and navel-gazey he gets, at the core of it, this guy gets it.
