This engaging summary presents an analysis of The First Man by Albert Camus, which tells the true story of the father he never knew and his search to discover what sort of man he had been, in order to find himself. The incomplete manuscript was found in the mud following Camus’s fatal car crash in 1960, and was later published by his daughter. Some consider it a true masterpiece thanks to its detailed descriptions and honest representation of childhood, and it was adapted for film in 2011.
