Details

Synopsis Technically this is Camus's first novel, composed when he was not yet 25, although it was not published until 1971, long after his death. A HAPPY DEATH lays the foundation for THE STRANGER, covering the same events and themes surrounding the arbitrary murder of an Arab man by an Algerian clerk. Here the treatment is somewhat more removed and frivolous, but at the same time a more genuine window on the young Camus himself.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "It was ten in the morning, and Patrice Mersault was walking steadily toward Zagreus's villa."
Industry Reviews "Radiant writing.... Describe[s] the world as it might have been seen by an angel on his first visit.... May be read as a preamble to 'The Stranger' and 'The Myth of Sisyphus.'" Pinker
