(see photos) Edition / Printing Notes Vintage Books / Random House, New York; Vintage Books edition first published September 12, 1954; Vintage catalogue number V-2; ISBN 0-394-70002-3; 154 pages.

Translation by Stuart Gilbert — the original English-language translation, which remained the standard American text until Matthew Ward's new translation was published by Vintage International in 1989. The Gilbert translation is regarded by many scholars as closest to the original French and remains preferred by serious students of Camus. The Vintage V-2 edition is the most historically significant American paperback form of this text — the edition through which generations of American readers first encountered The Stranger. Since it was first published by Gallimard as L'Étranger in 1942, Camus's first-person narrative of solitude and disaffection has become a classic of existential literature. Meursault, an indifferent French Algerian, shoots an Arab man on a sun-drenched beach — and faces trial not so much for the act itself as for his disturbing refusal to conform to the emotional expectations of those around him. One of the most widely read and taught novels of the twentieth century, The Stranger is the defining work of Camus's philosophy of the absurd — Camus won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1957, three years after this Vintage Books edition first appeared. The Stuart Gilbert translation — the text through which American readers discovered Camus for decades — in a clean, well-preserved copy with a virtually invisible repair.…

Description de la boutique

My late wife and I spent a lot of time accumulating books, especially during COVID. With her gone, the books are a reminder of her. Hence, it's time for me to Turn the Page. Update: Please note I have recently moved to New Mexico (September 2026) where our chihuahua, Pedro, will no longer have to slog through snow and ice - the state where my beloved wife and his mommy lived before we met. Thank you for all your orders since opening this storefront!
