La caída
by Albert Camus
La obra literaria, periodística y filosófica de Albert Camus (1913-1960) sirvió de orientación ética y de estímulo intelectual a la generación europea llegada a la madurez tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial y marcada por los horrores y sufrimientos de la contienda. Publicada en 1956, un año antes de que se le concediera el Premio Nobel, " La caída " fue tras " El extranjero " y " La peste " , la tercera y última novela de Camus, quien reflejó en ella la desesperación del hombre contemporáneo, condenado a vivir en un mundo dominado por el absurdo y forzado a descubrir, tras las ilusiones de la felicidad y la virtud, la dureza de una realidad hostil.
