This book takes a fresh look at the novels and short stories of Albert Camus from his early attempt at a first novel La Mort heureuse to the largely autobiographical Le Premier homme unfinished at the time of his death. It seeks to see the oeuvre as a totality coherent throughout and examines the linkages and transformations from one work to the next in the context of Camus's thought attitudes and topoi or themes. The development of narrative techniques is examined ranging from laconism to lyricism from allegorism to realism from humour to biting satire. The author traces the influence on Camus's thought of philosophers and thinkers as diverse as Nietzsche and the pre-Socratics on the one hand and St Augustine Pascal and Simone Weil on the other and considers the circularity of his work from the early preoccupation with the finality of death and the search for meaning to the return to the origin and source in Le Premier homme. The enduring appeal of Camus's work is attributed to its humane openness and its challenges for our time.
