The Sea Close By

This is a short work which has two essays written by Albert camus
The first essay which has the same name of the book was s a hallucinatory voyage across the sea and what the sea meant for humans across history
The next essay which is named Summer in Algeria is the more fascinating one as he tackles his usual themes of death, absurdism and existential thinking.
«I grew up in the sea and poverty was sumptuous, then I lost the sea and found all luxuries grey and
poverty unbearable.»

Thank you for the recommendation Ina. I thought I read most or all of Camus years ago but I don't remember this one. Nice review too!

Thank you for recommendation :)
Thank you, Ina, for the recommendation. I haven't tackled Camus in some time, and you've challenged me with a work of such few pages that I have no excuse for not reading them.

Nice, Ina! I've read only the "basics" (The Stranger and Myth of Sisyphus) by Camus, but I smiled seeing you'd reviewed this as it has some legendary claims of significance, too! Thanks for reminding us of it and for your thoughts. Love the line about the sea.

am in a period of existential thinking and i feel Existentialist writers feel more close to me now days.
sitting in sea shore especially at sun rise is really amazing scene Christy
