Read this over a very long time in bed and on trains. Borrowed from my best friend after they said I should read it. I've read another book by Camus and had the same general feelings about it. I don't really feel like it's changed my life or said anything revolutionary, and so I'm not sure if I missed his point. I understood his point and what he meant, I get absurdism, it just doesn't really speak to me I guess. Fun read though, I did enjoy it.
Read over a week on trains and in boring classes. Talked about time, the progression of things, and what the future is from an ethnologist's point of view. I enjoyed reading it quite a bit, and found lots of bits and pieces pretty meaningful/impactful. It took a bit of thinking to tie all of his ideas into one cohesive thing, but that's definitely my own fault for reading it in weird chunks. I like his style of writing and would love to read more of his work.
Read this on a V/Line trip, quite fun. My first intro to stoicism, and it made me think a lot. Recommended and lent to me by a very close friend. Sparked some good self reflection, and I think I live and think quite differently now to how I did before then. I have always been of the belief that life is smaller than it could be, and that has contributed to some feelings of hopeless stuck-ness. Changed my view somewhat, but also helped to build on ideas that I already had.
