Meursault, his anti-hero, will not lie. When his mother dies, he refuses to show his emotions simply to satisfy the expectations of others. And when he commits a random act of violence on a sun-drenched beach near Algiers, his lack of remorse compounds his guilt in the eyes of society and the law. Yet he is as much a victim as a criminal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Camus, Albert","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54712956485816,"sku":"9780241554401","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/1953\/8872\/files\/9780241554401.jpg?v=1794324996","url":"https:\/\/octoberbooks.org\/products\/9780241554401","provider":"October Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
