3. The Plague was enough for me

It depressed the hell out of me. I never read the Stranger

Then I read Sartre-Nausea. Only time in my life I have ever contemplated suicide. Then I gave up reading existentialists.

Best move I ever made.

9. I loved the Plague

I found to be a rather "light" read -- we had just read Jude the Obscure by Hardy -- that one had me contemplating suicide, the Plague was a sunny walk in the park after that!

4. The Plague was the first book I ever read 'relatively easily' in French

I was fascinated.
