Albert Camus · 1947
Camus's 1947 novel of collective crisis. It's not really about a plague: it's an essay on solidarity, responsibility, and what keeps you acting when survival makes sense but meaning does not.

Camus's first novel in a hundred and twenty pages of flat, exact prose. The brief covers the plot in one minute, the absurd in three, and why the trial is the real subject of the book.
