A haunting cornerstone of 20th-century literature, The Stranger explores the alienation of Meursault, a detached and emotionally indifferent man living in Algiers. Following the death of his mother, a series of seemingly random events leads him to commit a senseless murder on a scorching beach. Through Meursault's trial and ultimate fate, Nobel Prize-winning author Albert Camus delivers a powerful, gripping exploration of existentialism, absurdist philosophy, and the terrifying randomness of human existence.
