Why read it?
1 author picked The First Man as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The First Man, an autobiographical novel by Camus, remains unfinished. When Camus was killed in the car accident, the manuscript of this book was found in the car. This is a story of his childhood in the Algerian town by the sea.
It's written with great energy, love of life, and compassion. I read the novel in splendid English translation by David Hapgood.
