‘Basically it starts with the nihilism of that book, and tries to find a way back to life.’
Camus is utterly depressing if you fall for the apparent nihilism, the surface hopelessness – but that’s the catch. He is actually a hopeful writer! Despite the plague/Nazism/(insert topical totalitarianism )/the apparent meaninglessness of existence, there is hope ‘for summer even in winter.’
