About this audiobook
ALBERT CAMUS (1913–1960) is unsurpassed among writers for a body of work that animates the wonder
and absurdity of existence. Personal Writings brings together, for the first time, thematically linked essays from across
Camus’s writing career that reflect the scope and depth of his interior life. Grappling with an indifferent mother
and an impoverished childhood in Algeria, an ever-present sense of exile, and an ongoing search for equilibrium,
Camus’s personal essays shed new light on the emotional and experiential foundations of his philosophical thought
and humanize his most celebrated works.
Albert Camus
Albert Camus nació en Argelia el 7 de noviembre de 1913. Fue ensayista, novelista, dramaturgo, filósofo y periodista, y una de las figuras intelectuales más relevantes de la Europa del siglo xx. Autor de aclamadas novelas de corte existencialista como El extranjero o La peste, también de ensayos clave como El mito de Sísifo, recibió el máximo galardón de las letras, el Premio Nobel de Literatura, en 1957. Tres años más tarde, en 1960, falleció en un accidente de coche.
