Life
Albert Camus was born in Algeria to French parents. He wanted to be an author, and despite his impoverished upbringing, he got a chance to study at the university in Algeria. He wrote for the newspaper Alger Républicaine about the political situation in the country. The newspaper was banned, and Camus moved to Paris, where he subsequently worked as a journalist and author and in the theater. He married Francine Faure and they had twins, Catherine and Jean. Camus died at age 46 in an auto accident.
Work
Albert Camus made his debut in 1937, but his breakthrough came with the novel L’étranger (The Stranger), published in 1942. It concerns the absurdity of life, a theme he returns to in other books, including his philosophical work Le mythe de Sisyphe (The Myth of Sisyphus). Camus also worked as a playwright and journalist. Because of his friendship with Jean-Paul Sartre, Camus was labeled an existentialist, but he preferred not to be linked with any ideology. His last novel, La Chute (The Fall), was published in 1956, and an unfinished autobiography, Le Premier homme (The First Man), was published posthumously.
作品
阿尔贝-加缪于1937年出道，但他的突破性作品是1942年出版的小说《异乡人》（L'étranger）。该书涉及生活的荒谬性，这是他在其他书籍中再次提到的主题，包括他的哲学作品《西西弗斯的神话》（Le mythe de Sisyphe）。加缪还担任过剧作家和记者。由于他与让-保罗-萨特的友谊，加缪被贴上了存在主义的标签，但他宁愿不与任何意识形态挂钩。他的最后一部小说《堕落》（La Chute）于1956年出版，未完成的自传《第一个人》（Le Premier homme）也在死后出版。
