The Myth of Sisyphus
Find it online ↗Overview
Camus's essay on the absurd - the collision between our demand for meaning and a universe that offers none. Starting from "the only truly serious philosophical problem," suicide, he argues for revolt instead: living fully, lucidly, and without appeal. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.
