The Stranger

i started a new anxiety med which is making my adhd worse which is making it nearly impossible to sit down to read but i wanted to stick to my goal of reading a classic a month this year & im very glad i picked up this one. will absolutely have to reread after some time passes

i often get frustrated reading translations because i always feel like i'm missing out on ideas/expressions in the original language that have been lost. without knowing if this is actually true, it felt like this translation retained the authors intent & the heart of the words
