The Stranger
by Albert Camus
4/5
Vintage International 123 pages March 13, 1989
Camus's iconic novel follows Meursault, an emotionally detached Algerian clerk who commits an inexplicable murder and faces trial — not just for his crime, but for his refusal to conform to society's expectations about grief, emotion, and meaning.

Jim's Review
🐛
Meursault is the most unbothered protagonist in all of literature and Jim kind of admires it. This slim novel packs an absurdist punch that'll have you questioning everything society tells you to feel. Short enough to read in one burrow session.
