In this video we go through The Stranger (1942): Meursault, the funeral he didn't cry at, the trial that cared more about his tears than the killing, and what he finally discovers on his last night in prison. We also look at Camus's own childhood with a nearly silent mother, the fair criticism of the novel raised in Kamel Daoud's The Meursault Investigation, and what all of this means for the moments when you feel nothing.
Books mentioned: The Stranger by Albert Camus, The First Man by Albert Camus, The Meursault Investigation by Kamel Daoud

━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Philophecy explores philosophy, psychology, existentialism, and the strange questions that come with being human.
Why do we think the way we do? What gives life meaning? Do we really have free will? And how much of what we believe is actually our own?
If you enjoy questioning reality, overthinking existence, and falling down philosophical rabbit holes, you're in the right place.
New ideas. Old questions. No easy answers.
