An omnibus volume gathering several of Camus's major works in English. It includes The Plague, a novel about a North African port town cut off by an epidemic, and The Fall, a confessional monologue set in an Amsterdam bar.
It also contains the story collection Exile and the Kingdom and a selection of essays. Together they offer a broad view of his central concerns: suffering, solidarity, guilt, solitude and the search for dignity in a world without clear meaning.
