Betwixt and Between . The Wedding Collection. Summer (ePub)

Betwixt and Between, The Wedding Collection and Summer are three famous essay collections written by Camus. The length of Betwixt and Between is not long. However, it is the most significant creation by Camus. It is consisted of five pieces of essays. All these essays are adapted from the surrounding life and figures of the author, including his grandmother and mother. What Camus did in this essay collection is to figure out sharp feelings from ordinary life and abstract it to philosophy. The Wedding Collection is consisted of four pieces of article, which are completely different from Betwixt and Between in style with distinct contrast. If we say Betwixt and Between is heavy, melancholy, sorrowful and gloomy, then The Wedding Collection is joyful, bright, comfort and beautiful. Here, it is the summer in Algeria with sunshine, flowers and shadows. The natural scenery and human landscape reflect each other as if a couple is at the wedding ceremony. The author enjoys the shower as the son of sun and sea, not seeking for loneliness or thinking about philosophy but sightseeing the nature, appreciating the hometown and enjoying the life fun. In general, this is a book full of sunshine with love to the life. Summer is the last collection of essays by Camus to depict local customs and practices in Algeria and his complicated affections to Algeria.
