About this listen

In the small coastal city of Oran, Algeria, rats begin rising up from the filth only to die as bloody heaps in the streets. Shortly after, an outbreak of the bubonic plague erupts and envelops the human population. Albert Camus' The Plague is a brilliant and haunting rendering of human perseverance and futility in the face of a relentless terror born of nature.

Truly brilliant book and a study of human condition. Not sure how it didn’t resurface in a bigger way during lockdown. Possibly due to our inherent need to feel that we are somehow unique.
