Description

One of the most influential works of philosophy ever written- a crucial exposition of existentialist thought, now available in a stand-alone edition.One of the most influential works of this century, The Myth of Sisyphus-featured here in a stand-alone edition-is a crucial exposition of existentialist thought.

With lyric eloquence, Albert Camus brilliantly posits a way out of despair, reaffirming the value of personal existence, and the possibility of life lived with dignity and authenticity.
