The Myth of Sisyphus
ByPublisher Description
A Nobel Prize-winning author delivers one of the most influential works of the twentieth century, showing a way out of despair and reaffirming the value of existence.
Influenced by works such as Don Juan and the novels of Kafka, these essays begin with a meditation on suicide—the question of living or not living in a universe devoid of order or meaning. With lyric eloquence, Albert Camus brilliantly presents a crucial exposition of existentialist thought.

“This is one of those "it's not you, it's me" situation. I decided to read it assuming it would be greek related. However, there are a lot of references that I haven't even read yet so the philosophical analysis made no impact. There was also a whole section focused on Franz Kafka's work that gave a lot of spoiler so I had to skimmed through those parts.”
