What is The Plague (Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition) about?

Chaos prevails when the bubonic plague strikes the Algerian coastal city of Oran. A haunting tale of human resilience and hope in the face of unrelieved horror, Albert Camus' iconic novel about an epidemic ravaging the people of a North African coastal town is a classic of twentieth-century literature. “Its relevance lashes you across the face.” — Stephen Metcalf, The Los Angeles Times The townspeople of Oran are in the grip of a deadly plague, which condemns its victims to a swift and horrifying death. Fear, isolation, and claustrophobia follow as they are forced into quarantine. Each person responds in their own way to the lethal disease: some resign themselves to fate, some seek blame, and a few, like Dr Rieux, resist the terror. An immediate triumph when it was published in 1947, The Plague is in part an allegory of France’s suffering under the Nazi occupation, as well as a timeless story of bravery and determination against the precariousness of human existence.“A redemptive book, one that wills the reader to believe, even in a time of despair.” — Roger Lowenstein, The Washington Post
