About the Book
The Stranger is the first of Camus' novels to be published (1942). It follows Meursault, an indifferent settler in French Algeria, who weeks after his mother's funeral kills an unnamed Arab man in Algiers. The story is divided into two parts, presenting Meursault's first-person narrative before and after the killing.
