Oran, a seemingly ordinary town in Algeria, becomes the unexpected backdrop for this gripping tale of human resilience and despair. Albert Camus’ “The Plague” follows Dr. Rieux and a cast of unforgettable characters as they confront an unrelenting epidemic. Camus masterfully explores the themes of isolation, community, and the struggle to find meaning in suffering. This isn’t just a story about disease; it’s a profound reflection on the human condition and our shared fight for survival.
The truth is that everyone is bored, and devotes himself to cultivating habits.
