The Rebel - Softcover
Camus himself described this work as "an attempt to understand the time I live in". Camus looks at the harm done through surrendering to ideologies which can uproot, enslave or kill human beings, and while he expresses his condemnation, he at the same time suggests that its guilt be understood.
