A Unique Perspective

A long time student of Camus' works, I thought I knew everything there was to know about this man. However, this book along with "Albert Camus and the Minister" have left me with a fresh perspective on Camus. Not to say that it destroys the image of the man that other works personify, but it does work to fill in the gaps and in some cases bring to light new things about a well known man, of whom little is truely known.
