Critical Essay 1

In this critical essay the author imlies many things about the main character Meursault and the author of the book Albert Camus. The author of the essay uses sources to imply that Camus is portraying Meursault as himself. He refers toMeursault as a madman and a disturbing person in general. The essay also goes on to say that the book is implausible and that it is unintelligent to think about a situation like this. It is also said that Meursault is a "junenile deinquet". Until the point were Meursault commits murder you are lead to believe that Meursault is just a epressed person with no ambition. However once he commits the murder of the Arab it is brught to the surface that Meursault is a cold and cruel person with no prospects,"no love, no friends, and no interest in anyone or in any faith". This essay also points out that Meursault is really a very intelligant person but even though he is a smart person he does not seem to have any emotional feelings. Finally at the end of the essay the author implies that if Meursault is so intelligant there is no way he can be seen as a "juvenile deinquent". I feel that Meursault is evil and that he really has no feelings or emotions for anyone or anything. Meursault gives no reason throughout the book to imply anything else. i also disagree with the author of thiss essay because even though he may be intelligant he is still an evil person.
