Jacob and O'Connor finally talk about Albert Camus [1913-1960], a French absurdist philosopher and author of several topical novels including The Plague, Myth of Sisyphus, and The Stranger, today's topic of interest. Likely Jacob's most cited philosopher, Camus brings a refreshing groundedness and flair to existentialism (although he firmly rejected being called an existentialist during his lifetime). His novel "The Stranger" was very strange - Absurd, one might say.
