Synopsis

NOBEL PRIZE–WINNING AUTHOR

One of the most widely read novels of all time—from one of the best-known writers of all time—about a lawyer from Paris who brilliantly illuminates the human condition.

Elegantly styled, Camus’ profoundly disturbing novel of a Parisian lawyer’s confessions is a searing study of modern amorality.

Nobel Prize WINNER 1957

you know this person, we all know this person, this particular kind of person. a real do-gooder, a person of the people, doling out the goodwill and the spare change and the spare arm to help that blind person across the street. you know the satisfaction they get from looking humble, acting humble,......more

I love small books. I always have, always will. You may be tempted to assume, due to everything else about me and what I do and who I am as a person, that this is sheer laziness on my part.
