'A story for our, and all, times' Guardian The Plague is Albert Camus's world-renowned fable of fear and courageThe townspeople of Oran are in the grip of a deadly plague, which condemns its victims to a swift and horrifying death. Fear, isolation and claustrophobia follow as they are forced into quarantine. Each person responds in their own way to the lethal disease: some resign themselves to fate, some seek blame, and a few, like Dr Rieux, resist the terror.An immediate triumph when it was published in 1947, The Plague is in part an allegory of France's suffering under the Nazi occupation, and a story of bravery and determination against the precariousness of human existence.

NOBEL PRIZE WINNER - An internationally acclaimed author delivers one of the most influential works of the twentieth century, showing a way out of despair and reaffirming the value of existence.Influenced by works such as Don Juan and the novels of Kafka, these essays begin with a meditation on suicide--the question of living or not living in a universe devoid of order or meaning. With lyric eloquence, Albert Camus brilliantly presents a crucial exposition of existentialist thought.

The summation of the existentialist philosophy threaded throughout all his writing, Albert Camus' The Myth of Sisyphus is translated by Justin O'Brien with an introduction by James Wood in Penguin Classics.In this profound and moving philosophical statement, Camus poses the fundamental question: is life worth living? If human existence holds no significance, what can keep us from suicide? As Camus argues, if there is no God to give meaning to our lives, humans must take on that purpose themselves. This is our 'absurd' task, like Sisyphus forever rolling his rock up a hill, as the inevitability of death constantly overshadows us. Written during the bleakest days of the Second World War, The Myth of Sisyphus (Le Mythe de Sisyphe) argues for an acceptance of reality that encompasses revolt, passion and, above all, liberty. This volume contains several other essays, including lyrical evocations of the sunlit cities of Algiers and Oran, the settings of his great novels The Outsider and The Plague.Albert Camus (1913-60) is the author of a number of best-selling and highly influential works, all of which are published by Penguin. They include The Fall, The Outsider and The First Man. Awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1957, Camus is remembered as one of the few writers to have shaped the intellectual climate of post-war France, but beyond that, his fame has been international.If you enjoyed The Myth of Sisyphus, you might like Camus' The Outsider, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.'Camus could never cease to be one of the principal forces in our domain, nor to represent, in his own way, the history of France and of this century'Jean-Paul Sartre

My mother died today. Or maybe yesterday, I don't know.'A stranger to society, a stranger to his own life, Meursault seems indifferent to everything. In The Outsider, Camus explores the alienation of an individual who refuses to conform to social norms.When his mother dies, he refuses to show his emotions simply to satisfy the expectations of others. And when he commits a random act of violence on a sun-drenched beach near Algiers, his lack of remorse compounds his guilt in the eyes of society and the law. Yet he is as much a victim as a criminal.A first in Penguin Modern Classics, Camus’ classic existentialist novel is told through Ryota Kurumado’s powerful artwork. Unlike previous editions of Camus’ novel, Meursault and other characters’ emotions are drawn out through stunning illustrations and seen for the first time. A rare and challenging feat, Kurumado’s manga adaptation makes a novel first published in 1942 feel contemporary.

Jeden z nejproslulejších románů 20. století, jímž se Albert Camus stal duchovním otcem celé jedné poválečné generace, byl bezprostředně po svém vydání v r. 1942 označen vichystickou kritikou jako "ochablost ducha" a "degenerace lidství". Ve skutečnosti je příběh Meursaulta, náhodného vraha odsouzeného k smrti, protože odmítá přijmout roli v společenských hrách, působivou oslavou člověka, a to člověka revoltujícího. Podle vlastní Camusovy interpretace "cizinec" až do konce odmítá lhát a bez jediného náznaku hrdinského chování souhlasí s tím, že zemře pro pravdu, aniž by ji "těm druhým" vnucoval.

Albert Camus' portrayal of a man confronting the absurdity of human life became a classic. Yet it is also a book filled with quiet joy in the physical world, and this new translation sensitively renders the subtleties and dreamlike atmosphere of The Outsider. 'My mother died today. Or maybe yesterday, I don't know.'In The Outsider (1942), his classic existentialist novel, Camus explores the alienation of an individual who refuses to conform to social norms. Meursault, his anti-hero, will not lie. When his mother dies, he refuses to show his emotions simply to satisfy the expectations of others. And when he commits a random act of violence on a sun-drenched beach near Algiers, his lack of remorse compounds his guilt in the eyes of society and the law. Yet he is as much a victim as a criminal. Albert Camus' portrayal of a man confronting the absurd, and revolting against the injustice of society, depicts the paradox of man's joy in life when faced with the 'tender indifference' of the world. Sandra Smith's translation, based on close listening to a recording of Camus reading his work aloud on French radio in 1954, sensitively renders the subtleties and dream-like atmosphere of L'Étranger. Albert Camus (1913-1960), French novelist, essayist and playwright, is one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century. His most famous works include The Myth of Sisyphus (1942), The Plague (1947), The Just (1949), The Rebel (1951) and The Fall (1956). He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1957, and his last novel, The First Man, unfinished at the time of his death, appeared in print for the first time in 1994, and was published in English soon after by Hamish Hamilton. Sandra Smith was born and raised in New York City and is a Fellow of Robinson College, University of Cambridge, where she teaches French Literature and Language. She has won the French American Foundation Florence Gould Foundation Translation Prize, as well as the PEN Book-of-the-Month Club Translation Prize.

Z temných koutů Oranu začaly vylézat krysy a groteskně hynou na ulicích - nejprve jedna, dvě, tři, pak jich spousty zaplaví město. Zanedlouho umírá první člověk a naplno propuká epidemie smrtelné nákazy. Zpočátku se lidé snaží nebezpečí přehlížet a hledají únik v zábavách i v běžných starostech. Epidemie však postupuje jako lavina a počet úmrtí stoupá. Úřady město hermeticky uzavřou a zavedou v něm přísnou karanténu. Šíří se pocity klaustrofobie, lidé podléhají úzkostem a strachu. Ne všichni však rezignují, ovšem k boji se odhodlá jen menšina. Rozum a vzdor jsou vlastní také doktoru Bernardu Rieuxovi, který celé dny tráví v zamořeném terénu a riskuje život, jen aby zachránil jiné. Čím se vyznačují ti nepoddajní lidé? Vidí snad pronikavěji do budoucnosti? Mezi fyzickou a psychickou infekcí, mezi nemocí a nakažlivou ideologií není zásadní rozdíl. "Mor" je metaforou pro jakýkoli stav absurdního utrpení, od ohrožení zdraví až po znásilňující ideologii, politické represe, okupaci a válku. Všichni víme, že takové nákazy se občas objeví, ale nějak se nám nechce uvěřit, když se nás některá bezprostředně týká. Máme dost moudrosti, abychom si přiznali, že když nesebereme včas odvahu k boji, náš život může v příštím okamžiku skončit? Nebo že přinejmenším ztratíme vše, co jsme až dosud s námahou budovali? Camusův Mor se v naší době stal znovu bestsellerem - přestože od jeho prvního vydání uplynulo víc než sedmdesát let. Mor vychází v ediční řadě Camusových děl v nově zpracovaných, autoritativních překladech, jež vydává nakladatelství LEDA.

Hlas Alberta Camuse zní ze všech jeho románů nejosobněji právě v této knize. Autor putuje ke kořenům, hledá sám sebe, odkrývá myšlenková východiska svých knih. Podněcuje čtenáře, aby důsledně promysleli jejich poselství. Opravdu jsou Camusovi vlastní všechny pojmy běžně spojované s jeho jménem - existencialismus, absurdita, společenské vyloučení, revolta? Autor vyjadřuje hluboký vztah k Alžírsku jako k svému prvnímu domovu, zatímco Francie pro něj navždy zůstala druhým, nikoli však vlastním domovem. Camusova přimknutost k zemi jeho dětství je stejného rodu jako láskyplný vztah k hluché, jen ze rtů odezírající negramotné matce, v jejíž chudé domácnosti na předměstí Alžíru vyrostl. Sebevýchova "prvního člověka" Camuse se musela obejít bez autority otce, bez jeho předaných zkušeností a pravd. Je věrný sám sobě, vědomý si svých chyb, nelítostně poctivý… a přitom se nevzdává naděje. Revoltuje proti utrpení, učí (se) milovat, co je nedokonalé. Jeho vnitřní, skutečná, žitá úcta k lidské práci ho rozdělila od pařížských intelektuálů, kteří o proletariátu jen vedli řeči. Kvůli tomu všemu je právě dnes namístě číst Camuse pozorně! Albert Camus zamýšlel tímto dílem vytvořit tolstojovsky velký román své doby. Paradoxně znejistělý udělením Nobelovy ceny bolestně s psaním zápasil, když ho ve třetině zamýšleného celku zastihla tragická smrt. Tímto románem zahajuje nakladatelství LEDA soustavnou ediční řadu Camusových děl v nově zpracovaných, autoritativních překladech.

Audiokniha: Nijak rozsáhlý, přesto ale nejslavnější Camusův román Cizinec proslul stejně svou záhadností, jako tím, že se brzy po vydání stal synonymem existencialismu – k autorově nelibosti. Půdorys Cizince lze přitom vystihnout málo slovy: nesmyslný život, nesmyslná vražda, cesta k nesmyslné smrti. Nejednoznačnost, kterou se kniha vyznačuje, však už po několik generací naprosto vzdoruje snahám o konečný, definitivní výklad. Fascinující a současně matoucí postavy a motivy románu vyvolávají neodbytné otázky: Proč Mersault zabil onoho Araba? A proč je potom tak lhostejný k následkům svého činu? Proč se ani v nejmenším nepokouší předstírat víc citlivosti, když by tím mohl uniknout nejvyššímu trestu? Cizinec je román se znamením absurdnosti a lhostejnosti, ovšem natolik naléhavý, že ho nedokážeme číst s lhostejným srdcem. Je to román, ke kterému se určitě vrátíme. Možná nám pomůže, abychom víc porozuměli životu, světu, sobě… Snad přestaneme hloubat nad smyslem života a uvědomíme si celé svoje štěstí. Naposledy: není to příběh o prázdnotě vesmíru, ne – zde se hraje o vítězství lidské duše.

U soudu hájí svoji pravdu a odmítá nařčení, že je bezcitný a lhostejný. Mersault je nakonec odsouzen, ale nikoliv ani tak za vraždu, ale proto, že podle výpovědi svědků neplakal na pohřbu své matky.

'Fascinating. . . This engaging book explores just how multiple languages are acquired and sorted out by the brain. . . Costa's work derives from a great fund of knowledge, considerable curiosity and solidly scientific spirit' Philip Hensher Spectator The definitive study of bilingualism and the human brain from a leading neuropsychologist Over half of the world's population is bilingual and yet few of us understand how this extraordinary, complex ability really works. How do two languages co-exist in the same brain? What are the advantages and challenges of being bilingual? How do we learn - and forget - a language? In the first study of its kind, leading expert Albert Costa shares twenty years of experience to explore the science of language. Looking at studies and examples from Canada to France to South Korea, The Bilingual Brain investigates the significant impact of bilingualism on daily life from infancy to old age. It reveals, among other things, how babies differentiate between two languages just hours after birth, how accent affects the way in which we perceive others and even why bilinguals are better at conflict resolution. Drawing on cutting-edge neuro-linguistic research from his own laboratory in Barcelona as well from centres across the world, and his own bilingual family, Costa offers an absorbing examination of the intricacies and impact of an extraordinary skill. Highly engaging and hugely informative,The Bilingual Brain leaves us all with a sense of wonder at how language works. Translated by John W. Schwieter

Vaclav Havel's remarkable and rousing essay on the tyranny of apathy, with a new introduction by Timothy Snyder Cowed by life under Communist Party rule, a greengrocer hangs a placard in their shop window: Workers of the world, unite! Is it a sign of the grocer's unerring ideology? Or a symbol of the lies we perform to protect ourselves? Written in 1978, Vaclav Havel's meditation on political dissent - the rituals of its suppression, and the sparks that re-ignite it - would prove the guiding manifesto for uniting Solidarity movements across the Soviet Union. A portrait of activism in the face of falsehood and intimidation, The Power of the Powerless remains a rousing call against the allure of apathy. 'Havel's diagnosis of political pathologies has a special resonance in the age of Trump' Pankaj Mishra

Humanity has always been struck by pestilence and pandemics, from the plagues of ancient Egypt to the pox that ravaged Europe in the Middle Ages, to Covid-19. People living through the crises have always recorded what they saw, what they felt, and what they did. Some presented sober facts laced with anecdote, while others produced emotional outpourings; moralists speculated on the origins of the horror, poets distilled the suffering. Doctors described how they were able to advance their understanding of disease and scientists how to cure it, while survivors and the families of victims gave the inside story of the nightmare that develops when a long-feared disease enters your home or your body. There was a time when to read accounts of the Plague in Wittenburg by Martin Luther or the Great Plague of 1665 by Samuel Pepys – scenes of anguish and woe, empty streets, quarantined houses, closed businesses, overflowing graveyards, heroic doctors and nurses, quack remedies and charlatans – was to enter a disturbing and unfamiliar world. Today, to read the same words is to be hit by a jolt of recognition and understanding. As well as causing a huge loss of life, the Covid pandemic has taught us a great deal about ourselves and the way we live, illuminating tensions at the heart of society. This collection of intimate and revelatory first-hand accounts of pandemics through the ages bears witness to despair, rage, the blackest of humour, heartbreak and hope. These voices hold up a mirror to our own experiences of, and responses to, the crisis today.
