	Albert Camus
		Camus was a French philosophical novelist and essayist who was also a prose poet and the conscience of his times.
		He was born and raised in Algeria, and his experiences as a fatherless, tubercular youth, as a young playwright and journalist in Algiers, and later in the anti-German resistance in Paris during World War II informed everything he wrote.
		Sisyphus thrives (he is even "happy") by virtue of his scorn and defiance of the gods, and by virtue of a "rebellion" that refuses to give in to despair.

		Camus was the serious political activist, and Sartre was the wall-eyed philosopher who was always thinking about how to become involved but could never pull it off.
		Camus was watching the rehearsals of the play in which Sartre is embracing dirty hands for the purpose of revolutionary change.
		Camus was equally selective: while devoting virtually all of his political energy for several years to attacking Communism, he was not above using his anti-Communism against the FLN in Algeria, or approving of the disastrous Suez operation of 1956.

	Camus
		In 1918 Camus entered primary school and was fortunate enough to be taught by an outstanding teacher, Louis Germain, who helped him to win a scholarship to the Algiers lycée (high school) in 1923.
		Camus had now moved from his first main concept of the absurd to his other major idea of moral and metaphysical "rebellion." He contrasted this latter ideal with politico-historical revolution in a second long essay, L'Homme révolté (1951; The Rebel), which provoked bitter antagonism among Marxist critics and such near-Marxist theoreticians as Jean-Paul Sartre.
		In 1957, at the early age of 44, Camus received the Nobel Prize for Literature.

		Camus uses the Greek legend of Sisyphus, who is condemned by the gods to roll a boulder up a hill for eternity, as a metaphor for the individual's persistent struggle against the essential absurdity of life.
		According to Camus, the first step an individual must take is to accept the fact of this absurdity.
		If, as for Sisyphus, suicide is not a possible response, the only alternative is to rebel by rejoicing in the act of rolling the boulder up the hill; Camus further argues that with the joyful acceptance of the struggle against defeat the individual gains definition and identity.

		Elegantly styled, Camus' profoundly disturbing novel of a Parisian lawyer's confessions is a searing study of modern amorality.
		Camus is practically yelling at the reader, telling him not to take anything the narrator says at face value: "You, for instance, , stop and think what your sign would be.
		Sure, Camus inserts a lot of angst-ridden, "life's a tale told by an idiot, signifying nothing," passages, but it's clear by the context that he is parodying himself and his "compatriotes." This is an intentional shaggy-dog story.

		While Camus cannot be called a true existentialist in his own philosophical outlook, his fiction does epitomize many existentialist ideas.
		Camus has the great virtue of being accessible, perhaps more in this work than in any of his other writings, because his figures do not portray anything; people are themselves, and the mixture is ultimately toxic, at least for Merseault.
		Like Sartre in his plays and novels, Camus presents people in common, unheroic circumstances, all the better to show what heroism is in existential terms.
