«L'Étranger» is the existentialist novel by Albert Camus, published by Gallimard in paperback within the Folio Plus collection (176 pages, in French).
The work tells the story of Meursault, an apparently indifferent man who, after his mother's death, commits an act of violence whose consequences confront him with the absurdity of existence. Through sober and precise prose, Camus explores the individual's alienation from social conventions and the universe's indifference, making the novel a pillar of existentialism and twentieth-century French literature.
This edition is part of Gallimard's Folio Plus collection and includes the complete text with a dossier by Joël Malrieu, according to the Google Books record.
Recommended for readers who want to start with Camus's work or delve into existentialism, as well as for intermediate-level French students seeking an accessible and meaningful read.
