The group will be reading "The Fall" by Frenchie Albert Camus for Novel #2.
This is the first Camus read for Dr. Fowler and Ubiquitous so we will be reading "The Stranger" by Camus as well...
Read about him here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Camus
Haven't started the fall yet, but the stranger was full of such indiference and sharp observation. I feel both abserdly content and depressed at the same time. His descriptions of the beach, the sun, the heat and wind are so beautifull, but he's so dead inside that he feels no emotion at all. What an escape that would be sometimes, but to live your whole life that way, it would be hard not to shoot someone.
