About Albert Camus
Albert Camus was a French-Algerian philosopher and author celebrated for exploring the concept of absurdism, the idea that life has no inherent meaning. His most famous novel, "The Stranger," exemplifies this philosophy through its detached protagonist. Camus famously wrote that "one must imagine Sisyphus happy," suggesting we find meaning through accepting life's inherent contradictions. His works profoundly influenced twentieth-century existential thought.
