About this book

Albert Camus examines whether life can have value in a universe that appears to lack order or meaning. These philosophical essays consider the absurd alongside the question of whether life is worth living. Drawing on existentialist thought, Camus argues for the possibility of living with dignity even when familiar sources of certainty are in doubt.

About the author

Albert Camus - BDeBooks
Albert Camus

The Myth of Sisyphus, published in 1942, laid out the terms Camus kept for the rest of his life: nothing hands us a meaning, and the honest answer is neither despair nor a leap of faith but carrying on, so the man rolling his stone uphill forever is to be imagined happy. The English collection sets it beside shorter essays in Justin O'Brien's translation.
