Albert Camus

Albert Camus was many things:  war hero, Nobel Prize-winning novelist, and one of the 20^th century’s most fascinating public thinkers.  We examine the life and legacy of Camus on his 100th birthday: how a poor kid from Algeria became a revered French writer, hungry to find meaning in an absurd world, and why Camus still has a lot to tell us about a world mired in political violence.
