Albert Camus is one of the iconic figures of twentieth-century
French literature, one of France??'s most widely read modern
literary authors and one of the youngest winners of the Nobel Prize
for Literature. As the author of L???Etranger and the architect of
the notion of ???the Absurd??? in the 1940s, he shot to prominence
in France and beyond. His work nevertheless attracted hostility as
well as acclaim and he was increasingly drawn into bitter political
controversies, especially the issue of France??'s place and role in
the country of his birth, Algeria. Most recently, postcolonial
studies have identified in his writings a set of preoccupations
ripe for revisitation. Situating Camus in his cultural and
historical context, this Companion explores his best-selling
novels, his ambiguous engagement with philosophy, his theatre, his
increasingly high-profile work as a journalist and his reflection
on ethical and political questions that continue to concern readers
today.
