This new illustrated of Camus's final novel tells the story of
Jacques Cormery, a boy who lived a life much like Camus's own. This
stunning, fully illustrated edition summons up the sights, sounds
and textures of a childhood defined by poverty and a father's
death, yet redeemed by the austere beauty of Algeria-and the young
protagonist's attachment to his nearly deaf-mute mother. In telling
the story of his metaphorical search for his father, who died in
World War I, Camus returns to the "land of oblivion where each one
is the first man" and must find his own answers. Published
thirty-five years after its discovery amid the wreckage of the car
accident that killed the Nobel Prize-winning novelist, this graphic
interpretation of The First Man is the brilliant consummation of
the life and work of one of the twenty century's greatest authors.
