L'Étranger

De: Albert Camus

Narrado por: Michael Lonsdale

"18 juillet. Hier à midi, sur la plage de Tipaza, un employé de bureau dénommé Meursault, demeurant rue Bab-Azoun à Alger, a tué de cinq balles de revolver un Arabe non encore identifié. Les motifs du crime restent inconnus. Arrêté, Meursault a été transféré à la prison d'Alger." Jugé, reconnu coupable de meurtre avec préméditation, condamné à mort et exécuté, on ne saura jamais pourquoi Meursault a tué. Il assiste à son procès comme si c'était un autre qu'on jugeait. Une profonde réflexion sur l'être et la vie.©1942 Éditions Gallimard (P)1986/ 2007 Enregistrement Audivis/ Éditions Gallimard

"Aujourd'hui maman est morte!"

Um livro sensacional. É o retrato da impossibilidade da vida no absurdo. Uma implosão a cada frase dita pelo "herói do absurdo". Leitura mais do que recomendada.

low quality audio recording trying to ruin beautiful French literature

the voice of the reader is so sincere et douce, je ne me compris tant qu'elle remis souvent les epiciecles de la sauvagerie de truth.

Formidable!

A narration that makes you feel like the story is being told by that who wrote it, and the plot, as if narrated from that who lived it. It leaves me with a slightly sour aftertaste like a sweet fruity wine and a casually profound understanding of the mind of a lonely human, who lives led by honesty and tolerance.

The story is profound

I really like how the story presents omeone who is easy to judge is bad. Yet the reader can see how he still experiences life

Incontournable

« L'Étranger » d'Albert Camus est incontournable en raison de son exploration de l'absurde et de l'aliénation. À travers le personnage de Meursault, Camus examine l'indifférence de l'univers et le détachement de l'individu face aux normes sociales. Le style d'écriture simple et objectif renforce cette impression de détachement. L'œuvre a également une grande influence philosophique et littéraire, touchant des thèmes universels tels que la quête de sens et le conflit entre l'individu et la société. En somme, le roman reste essentiel pour comprendre les complexités de l'existence humaine.

Beautiful book by a skilled author

Makes one reflect on unfair judgement based on mere personal perspective of the other. Made me question social Justice. A captivating piece of art! Serene narration and music between chapters reflect the austerity of this artwork. Enjoyed every word.

Vocabulary

Lots of new and familiar vocabulary words and understanding how conjugations are used. Great book !

Wonderful interpretation

The narrator's Meursault is queerly monotonous and chillingly calm throughout. The pathological character is thus brilliantly brought to life.

A riveting story with a perfect end

A journey of a man looking for a face to find one at the end...Camus is brilliant.

Nice story but boringly read and too much music

The story is good but the narrator seems to be sleeping while reading. Also far too much music playing. We buy the book to have the story read to us, not to have so much bad music at the end of every chapter (30 seconds every time, very irritating)
