A classic story of a man who feels a deep alienation to others around him, and to himself. I read it when I was younger. If I reread it now I would probably give it a higher score.

Camus’ writing is absolutely breathtaking, he takes you so deep into the mind of the protagonist who deliberately tries to keep the reader at a distance, creating an internal monologue that is so fascinating. Very philosophical and character focused but amazing.
