  • "Caught in the grip of forces he does not understand, a quiet, ordinary clerk in Algiers commits a murder."@en
  • "When a young Algerian named Meursault kills a man, his subsequent imprisonment and trial are puzzling and absurd. The apparently amoral Meursault--who puts little stock in ideas like love and God--seems to be on trial less for his murderous actions, and more for what the authorities believe is his deficient character."@en
  • "Life begins to slowly and inexorably stalk an ordinary little man living quietly in Algiers. The pace quickens until the little man commits a pointless murder - and reaches its climax after his trial."@en
