the stranger


"the day, already bright with sun, hit me like a slap in the face" (47).

The physical experience Camus creates through this use of imagery works to give the reader a life like thought which connects him closer with the story. Camus uses simile to show the bright rays of sunlight that have so unwittingly shined upon Meursault's face. Camus has a special way with his words that really reach out to the reader to spark his/her interest in reading deeper into the novel.
