Camus Albert
The Myth of the Sisyphus
London: Hamish Hamilton 1955. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. A very nice copy of the first edition from the library of Dr. Harold A. Taylor "the president of Sarah Lawrence College known for his writing on education and philosophy and his stand against McCarthyism's interference with American education." Signed and dated by Taylor on the front endpaper. "In the essay Camus introduces his philosophy of the absurd man's futile search for meaning unity and clarity in the face of an unintelligible world devoid of God and eternal truths or values. Does the realization of the absurd require suicide Camus answers "No. It requires revolt." He then outlines several approaches to the absurd life. The final chapter compares the absurdity of man's life with the situation of Sisyphus a figure of Greek mythology who was condemned to repeat forever the same meaningless task of pushing a boulder up a mountain only to see it roll down again. The essay concludes "The struggle itself . is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy"." Quite uncommon in the first printing of the English translation. .

Camus Albert
The Plague
First edition "service de presse" review copy. Original printed wrappers in parchment cover. Areas of slight darkening to spine and along upper wrapper joint small scattered spots of rubbing on cover tiny chipping around extremities - but make no mistake this is a nice near fine copy of a fragile book - housed in collector's red buckram slipcase. Presentation copy by Camus on half title– "à Georgette Le Corre qui a coupé la La peste et à la Peste avec la sympathie Albert Camus" "To Georgette Le Corre Who cut the The plague and the Plague With sympathy Albert Camus" We have not been able to identify Ms. Le Corre. We have tried voraciously – going so far as to contact the assistant to Camus' daughter and they could not find a shred of information in their archives. Camus appears to be using wordplay with "coupe" and "la Peste". He writes "qui a coupe La Peste title print" AND "et la Peste". With "coupe" having various uses - to literally cut slang for editing or to reduce - this person could have helped him edit the book/formulate the story in some manner and also have had a hand in a real life "plague". Perhaps this person had a medical backgroundthere were small outbreaks in Olan during Camus's life or if he is referring to the plague as the Nazisgeneral agreement amongst scholars that they are the pestilence described in the book she could have been involved in anti-occupation actions. The fact that Camus purposefully wrote "and to the Plague" again shows a pun usage for "cutting" and "plague." This person is yet unidentified but the evidence suggests that she had some impact in his life.For even better pricing visit our website at http://annirocbooks.wixsite.com/anniroc.
