The Guest by Albert Camus — Review

The short story “The Guest” by French author Albert Camus put forward for readers the dilemma of choice in a very complicated situation. The main character is a schoolmaster who has to convoy an arrested person to the police.


The other important theme is: who has a right to be a host and who is a guest in the disputed territory, in an area where the war takes place.


The attitude of readers of the story about the actions which the characters of the story have makes an interesting subject for discussion.


Here is the link to the text of the story:
