By Albert Camus. Someone recomended me this book to help me develop my similar writing style that this book has. (You can find my story in the creative writing section ...)
Anyway, I cant put this book down. It is excellent. It is about a man who really has no care for anything in the world. He figures that life is a game of chance and that there are no set rules or right and wrong. His mother dies and no emotions show. He ends up killing a man for no real reason and is put on trial. blah blah blah I dont know what im saying anymore. read it.

Thanks I will definitely check it out. I read The Idiot and I enjoyed it very much. Although he was a Russian nationalist and an anti-semite, I still have respect for his books.

The Stranger is one of my favorite books of all time. Really great and not a long read.
