Call this a placeholder rather than a proper review, because in the flush of just finishing I'm not sure what I think of it. The character of Meursault is fascinating to me, as being apparently a high-functioning autistic, and for most of the story he makes perfect sense to me in those terms. But then there's the last few pages and his epiphany of the "gentle indifference of the world," and I don't feel I understand the psychology behind that at all. In fact, many of those final statements are opaque to me as well: The chaplain is "living like a dead man" - how so? "Everybody was privileged," but how and by whom? Most of all, he's able to reimagine the world in his own image - "so like a brother" - which is comforting for him, but why should it be true for anyone else? I'm glad I'll be talking about it with others more familiar with these deep waters, and maybe it'll make more sense to me afterward.

It's pure melodrama, but what a perfectly constructed one! The first-person narrator's mind is a hall of mirrors that is endlessly fascinating once you get the hang of it, making this book a steamroller of a read even if (like me) you don't entirely like any of the characters.

I had REEEAAALLL problems with the first half of the book: first with the deliberately dead style of the first couple of chapters (empty, dead "there was . . . and there was" sentences put in wherever possible), and then with the purportedly romantic dialogue between Our Narrator and his love interest. Like much of Hemingway's work, this was the story of someone with no visible inner life, which didn't make it an easy read. Thank God things picked up once our hero returned to the front, and some real tension was generated by how he would survive the chaos on the Italian front of WWI. It basically became half an interesting book to me midway through, and hence my average, three-star rating.

Amazing, amazing book - far better than the Benedict Cumberbatch miniseries, as good as that series was in itself.
