The master of absurdism, Albert Camus was a French novelist, philosopher and playwright, best known for his seminal masterpieces ‘The Stranger’, ‘The Plague’ and ‘The Rebel’. His writings explore the isolation of man in an alien universe, the estrangement of the individual from himself, the problem of evil and the finality of death, encapsulating the disillusionment of the postwar intellectual. His final works sketch the outlines of a liberal humanism that reject the dogmatic aspects of Christianity and Marxism. He was the recipient of the 1957 Nobel Prize in Literature at the age of 44 — the second-youngest recipient in history.
