Told as a novel, this is a moving account of the author's poverty-stricken childhood in Algeria, the love of his mother and the old schoolteacher who saved him from ignorance. The book acts as a novel on Algeria, on the relationship between man and the land, and between the French and Arabs.

Vendeur : Crappy Old Books, Barry, Royaume-Uni
Paperback. Etat : Fine. The First Man by Albert Camus (1995, Penguin Books) Offered by Crappy Old Books ? because greatness doesn?t need a shiny cover. Unfinished at the time of his death, Camus? final work is a raw, intimate, and deeply autobiographical novel that peels back the layers of colonial Algeria, family hardship, and a man?s search for identity. The First Man is less existential dread and more emotional excavation?a touching, earthy portrait of a boy becoming a man amid poverty and silence. This isn?t your neatly wrapped novel?Camus didn?t get the chance. But what?s here is pure, poignant, and unmistakably human. Penguin?s edition wraps this literary relic in thoughtful commentary and context, if you?re into that kind of thing. Our copy? A bit worn, maybe smells faintly of someone else?s nostalgia?but that?s the charm. Get it before it crumbles into existential dust. Near new condition. N° de réf. du vendeur 4019
