Beschreibung

The first manga adaptation of one of the world's greatest twentieth-century fiction classics

'My mother died today. Or maybe yesterday, I don't know.'

An outsider in society, an outsider in his own life, Meursault seems indifferent to everything. The death of his mother, a marriage proposal, the brutality of a friend... even the random act of violence he commits on a sun-drenched beach. An act which lands him in the dock, waiting for judgement.

Adapted by the Japanese artist Ryota Kurumado, this is the first ever manga version of Albert Camus's masterpiece: the portrayal of a man confronting the absurdity of human life.

Zusammenfassung

Albert Camus (1913-60) grew up in a working-class neighbourhood in Algiers. He studied philosophy at the University of Algiers, and became a journalist. His most important works include The Outsider, The Myth of Sisyphus, The Plague and The Fall. After the occupation of France by the Germans in 1941, Camus became one of the intellectual leaders of the Resistance movement. He was killed in a road accident, and his last unfinished novel, The First Man, appeared posthumously.

Ros Schwartz is an award-winning translator from French. Acclaimed for her new version of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's The Little Prince, published in 2010, she has over 100 fiction and non-fiction titles to her name.

The French government made Ros a Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 2009, and in 2017 she was awarded the Institute of Translation and Interpreting's John Sykes Memorial Prize for Excellence.

Ryota Kurumado is a Japanese artist and the creator of a manga adaptation of Albert Camus' The Plague.
