Re: "“The plague” by Albert Camus I got this book a few weeks..."

In: s/Books

I read it as a teenager and really enjoyed it. I remember how eye-opening it was to realize that events that seem singular and monumental in retrospect, are slow slogs in real time, and life goes on anyway.

“The plague” by Albert Camus I got this book a few weeks ago and I’m having a great time with it! A lot of the situations and issues it places are extremely relatable to me (in many ways) and feel extremely akin to modern times, especially in relation to the never-ending “progress” bullshit we’ve been fed lately. Maybe my reading of the book is a little too political, but I’m enjoying it a lot so far! Would love to read more works by Camus after this one, good stuff.
