It's quite a short and simple read. I quite liked it, although I can't tell why exactly. Maybe I related to the Mersault fella (to some extent, not quite up to... well, you know.)

Çoxdandır düşündüyüm bir hekayəni yazmaq üçün Kamyunun Yad əsərini oxumalı oldum. Sadəcə ilk cümləsini oğurlayacaqdım amma halallıq olsun deyə kitabı oxuyum dedim... Kitabın mənim şərhimə onsuzda ehtiyacı yoxdur.

I see what Camus tried to do but it wasn't as memorable as I thought it'd be

And I as well, I too felt ready to start life all over again. As if this great release of anger had purged me of evil, emptied me of hope; and standing before this symbolic night bursting with stars, I opened myself for the first time to the tender indifference of the world. To feel it so like me, so like a brother, in fact, I understood that I had been happy, and I was still happy. So that it might be finished, so that I might feel less alone, I could only hope there would be many, many spectators on the day of my execution and that they would greet me with cries of hatred.
