Publisher Description

En mondæn Parisisk advokat gribes af lede over sin feterede position og egen selvtilfredshed. Han forlader alt og slår sig ned i en knejpe i Amsterdam, hvor han meget veltalende bekender og analyserer sine gerninger for enhver, der vil høre på ham. ... han blotter en sjæl, som vi må føle den dybeste afsky for, indtil vi opdager, at denne sjæl måske er vor egen ... Gennem [hans] veltalende og højst tvetungede bekendelse tages vore vedtagne forestillinger om ret og uret, sandhed og løgn, op til revision,....- Ole Storm

"Engrossing and disquieting, a deeply pessimistic view of the human condition, one with which I personally disagree - but that's no reason not to award top rating. It's always difficult to judge when reading a translation, but there isn't a word too many or too few. Thoroughly recommended. "

    " The book didn't really revolutionize my thinking, or anything, since I'm a bit of an existentialist already, but it was still an interesting read.This was my first Camus. I read somewhere that you should read them in order, but we'll see. "

    " Great wonderful read. This book can easily be completed in one evening. I love the confessional prose of Camus, the setting is interesting, and the suspense is quite active through his conversation, much revelation in character and self-analysis. I recommend if you enjoy confessional work. "

    " What the heck Camus? You are so weird. This entire book was a philosophical rant. :( "

    " I have a dream of one day owning all the books I've read that contain Truth. I dream of reading them all again and underlining that Truth so to it I can more easily refer. This book is on the list. "

    " Reread this book in a new Danish translation commemorating that Camus died 50 years ago. Also lead me to revisit my flirt with existentialism experienced by many people in their start twenties :-) Great literature! "

    " With the curtain pulled back, it's just a book about a guy stealing a painting, but like all of Camus' work...it's somehow extremely profound "

    " I may like The Fall more than The Stranger. The moral dilemma seems more relatable than shooting a man on the beach. "

About Albert Camus

Albert Camus (1913–1960) was a French philosopher, author, and journalist who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1957. His views contributed to the rise of the philosophy known as absurdism. He wrote in his essay The Rebel that his whole life was devoted to opposing the philosophy of nihilism while still delving deeply into individual freedom.
