The Stranger 1942 Literature

Albert Camus

A book that while just a bit too short to really resonate with me, is a brilliant philosophical drama that explores morality yadda yadda you get it. The writing style can be just a tad bit hard to follow from time to time, when you first pick it up, you'll find yourself often flipping back pages and rereading sentences to remind yourself why the character is doing what they're doing/where they are/what's happening in the story. The trial at the end is kinda the main highlight. Half the book is the day-to-day life of the main character, obviously some dramatic moments, but for the most part just exposition, and then the second part of the story is... weirdly enough also still pretty chill in tone despite the fact the protagonist has found themself in prison. A great one even if it does kinda take multiple reads to fully appreciate.
