520 | _aConventionally, acting as an outsider makes it possible to present yourself in opposition, to define yourself “below the surface” and to situate the spatial and temporal context of your existence, both individual and collective but, when the outsider is inside yourself, identity itself is shattered. Albert Camus’ book portrays this hollowing-out of a world that is imploding from deep down inside the self, where one’s most inner convictions are normally found. In addition to the question of the absurd, The outsider raises the question of self-control and self-knowledge, the temporary impairment of judgement when committing a crime and even the fundamental precariousness of the identity of a “normal” individual. The harsh light and clinical perspective of the style accentuate this questioning of what implicitly lies in the shadow of our deepest being. | ||
