Albert — Camus Estrangeiro Top ~upd~

“I had been happy, and I was happy still. For everything to be consummated, for me to feel less alone, I had only to wish that there be a large crowd of spectators the day of my execution and that they greet me with cries of hate.”

In most literature, the sun represents life, hope, or enlightenment. In The Stranger , the sun is a weapon. It is the blinding, oppressive heat that pushes Meursault to pull the trigger. Camus transforms nature into a silent accomplice to murder.
