Rebel / Camus, Albert; Bower, Anthony (Tr.) 2000  Book
Camus, Albert Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Penguin Group, 2000.
Description xii, 260pWhite spine
Series Modern Classics
Summary/Abstract 'To say that life is absurd, one must be alive.' The Rebel is Camus' 'attempt to understand the time I live in' and a brilliant exploration of what it means to resist. His fiery, passionate criticism of Communism and the French Revolution for their use of terror attracted violent opposition from his contemporaries, who held these events sacred. Camus argues that hope for the future lies in revolt without revolution; rooted in wisdom, beauty and individual freedom.
