La Peste

An epidemic of plague is taking place in the city of Oran in the 1940s. Day after day, the reader follows the appearance and spread of the disease. He discovers the reactions of each of the characters to suffering and death: some flee, others stay to fight. Through this great novel, Albert Camus pays tribute to those who confront life with modesty and honesty, and invites us to reflect on the values of solidarity and commitment. A strong title, in resonance with the current situation. Text groups: 1. Figures of doctors 2. Man is a wolf for man
