The downfall
The novel "The Fall" by John tells the story of a successful Parisian lawyer, who takes up the causes of the destitute, and who courtes the weak and marginalized. The lawyer recounts the manner and reasons for his fall from the highest social ranks to the lowest, as if recalling man's fall from the Garden of Eden. Through this fall, which constitutes the main theme of the novel. The lawyer tells the story of his success, that traditional success represented by what was formulated by society, people, authority, or any external influence that does not emanate from the individual himself. The problem with this idea is not in its exclusion of the individual as a group, but rather in its assumption of the existence of this collective standard resulting from the existence of an objective meaning for this life, and this is what existential philosophies agree to reject despite their differences with each other. Existentialisms agree that existence precedes meaning, and accordingly The essence of life is not something that requires searching for, but rather something that the individual creates for himself in order to live a non-absurd life.

About the Author

About The Author

Albert Camus (1913-1960) was an Algerian-born French author, philosopher, and journalist. He is generally considered one of the fathers of Existentialism along with Jean-Paul Sartre (though Camus is famously quoted as saying "I am not an Existentialist"). Camus is most well known for his books The Stranger and The Plague, which have become classic examples of Absurdist and Existential Literature. In 1957, he won the Nobel Prize in Literature.
