About Book:

The Stranger is the story of an anti-hero. When he is tried for a crime in a court of law, he comes to know that his trial is more about him than his offense. He may be exonerated for what he did but he is not pardonable for who he is. But will he himself forgive the world he lives in when he finally begins to understand its true nature? Camus’ The Stranger validates his theory of absurd, the mainstay of his philosophical work. It is, indeed, another classical addition to world literature. It was originally published in French in 1942. Its first English translation appeared in 1946.
