Everytime you start something with camus, you must expect an element of unpredictability. This is a collection of six of the shorter version of his works. One would appreciate the work once he realises the desired cretivity associated with narrating the isolation. "The Guest" is one of its kind describing more faithful conviction of the other side of the man irrespective of his future consequences. A must read for all. Hardly any of the contemporary writers might have offered that much impact on the humane value in a divided society. Each of the six stories carves out the importance of the self existence af an individual in a world that is better described by the mutual contrast. The character stays upto his/her domain of insulation irrespective of the contrast offered by the ambience. Implicit expression of the characters of this literary work is one of the best as far as the western literature is considered.
