I've been wanting to read Camus' work for years because I thought I agreed with most of his ideas. I tried reading The Stranger once before, a few months ago, and stopped around 25% through. I picked it up again today and it just clicked. Such a fantastic book. It's a depressing read and yet it's strangely comforting. If you've ever thought that life was meaningless or nothing matters, you should definitely read this book.
