  • Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus, translated by Justin O'Brien. Read “Absurdity and Suicide,” “Philosophical Suicide” and “Absurd Freedom” before returning to the closing Sisyphus essay. The translation's section titles provide useful locators across editions with different pagination.
  • Camus's “The Absurd Man” and “Absurd Creation,” in the same work. These develop the possibilities of conduct and creation that a reading focused only on the final myth can miss.
