Beckett, Literature And The Ethics Of Alterity
Four stars is an average of the various things at play here:
The introductory essay by the translator is an easy 5/5. For someone studying Camus, or interested in the progression of his philosophy during the mid 40s, it's an easy 5/5. An indispensable historical document for the English speaking Camus fan. The essays themselves are very, very mixed in terms of both interest and quality. Some are among my favorite things I've ever read of Camus, especially the editorial he wrote two days after Hiroshima. But a lot of it, particularly in 1944-45, is vague polemic. The experience of just reading through it, taking out the historical context, is a 2 or 3/5.
