The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays
Author: Albert Camus
The fundamental subject of The Myth of Sisyphus is this: it is legitimate and necessary to wonder whether life has a meaning; therefore it is legitimate to meet the problem of suicide face to face. This book declares that even within the limits of nihilism it is possible to find the means to proceed beyond nihilism.

All of Camus's literary work rests on his philosophical essay, THE MYTH OF SISYPHUS, which, taking its title from the legend of Sisyphus, and his eternal rock-pushing, analyzes a contemporary intellectual malady, the recognition of the absurdity of human life.
