its worth a read. but its nothing special. has allusions to camus work apart from the stranger. so you will get more out of it if you have read camus' canon

>a sequel to someone else's book
What a half-assed, pathetic little stunt. Reading someone else's book and being butthurt by it doesn't make you their equal. What a fucking joke.

>>7466614
Sounds suspiciously like a 'muh oppression' book.

If you guys haven't read it, then why do you want to make yourselves look like idiots by letting others know you haven't read it?

Calm your tits Ahmed.

I think it's reddit to be a smug pseud who speaks about things you have no knowledge about.

There's a million things he could've used to base his book about French Algeria about but somehow he ended up picking the least appropriate one.

No.
Cheap inter-textual relationship for hype/sales, could easily be done without interacting with The Stranger.

Deliberately Missing the Point: The Novel
The Arab was an Arab if only to highlight the Absurdity of a white man being executed for killing an Arab in Algeria. However the Stranger was much more of a focus on how Meursault was condemned for reasons entirely unrelated to the crime at all, that his life was just a series of events that lacked meaning and he has already embraced the fact that he will never find any meaning.

>>7470844
you seem to be missing the point of that novel. it's to reclaim the colonial viewpoint, that this was an arab man killed and no one cared because muh white feelings.

>>7470949
That's not really a significant point. The only people that truly should care are the court members. No one else, the victim, the killer, or anyone else involved, indicated it was about race. And there are no other segments relating to race in the entire novel.
