"An irresistible and brilliant examination of modern consciousness" - The New York Times
Jean-Baptiste Clamence is a soul in turmoil. During several drunken nights in an Amsterdam bar, he narrates his story to a random acquaintance. From a successful former lawyer and seemingly model citizen, unfolds a compelling, self-hating account of guilt, hypocrisy, and alienation.
"The Fall" (1956) is a brilliant depiction of a man who has glimpsed the emptiness of his existence. But beyond describing one man's disillusionment, Camus's novel reveals the universal human condition and its absurdities - our innocence, once lost, can never be regained ...
"Camus is the accused, the prosecutor, and his own defender. The Fall could have been titled 'The Last Judgment'" - Olivier Todd
