The Stranger (French: L'Étranger [letʁɑ̃ʒe], lit. 'The Foreigner'), also published in English as The Outsider, is a 1942 novella written by French author Albert Camus. The first of Camus's novels to be published, the story follows Meursault, an indifferent settler in French Algeria, who, weeks after his mother's funeral, kills an unnamed Arab man in Algiers. The story is divided into two parts, presenting Meursault's first-person narrative before and after the killing.Camus completed the initial manuscript by May 1941, with revisions suggested by André Malraux, Jean Paulhan, and Raymond Queneau that were adopted in the final version. The original French-language first edition of the novella was published on 19 May 1942, by Gallimard, under its original title; it appeared in bookstores from that June but was restricted to an initial 4,400 copies, so few that it could not be a bestseller. Even though it was published during the Nazi occupation of France, it went on sale without censorship or omission by the Propaganda-Staffel. Considered a classic of 20th-century literature, The Stranger has received critical acclaim for Camus's philosophical outlook, absurdism, syntactic structure, and existentialism (despite Camus's rejection of the label), particularly within its final chapter. Le Monde ranked The Stranger as number one on its 100 Books of the 20th Century. In Le Temps it was voted the third best book written in French in the 20th and 21st century by a jury of 50 literary connoisseurs. The novella has twice been adapted for film: Lo Straniero (1967) and Yazgı (2001), has seen numerous references and homages in television and music (notably "Killing an Arab" by The Cure), and was retold from the perspective of the unnamed Arab man's brother in Kamel Daoud's 2013 novel The Meursault Investigation.

My English teacher made us write a two page epilogue for Fahrenheit 451 but never had us turn it in so I might as well upload it here so someone could read it. This is one of the best stories I've read (so far) along with Anthem by Ayn Rand.

Granger introduces Montag to a secret place which Montag thought was long disappeared from society. Nota Bene; this story takes place after the events of the book, so spoilers ensue.

Four years after his brother's icy death, Ernest Frankenstein finds himself the lone survivor of his family and a refugee after revolutionaries force him to flee Geneva. Left with only Victor's cursed legacy, an unexpected run-in with Joseph Curwen, one of Victor's university friends, seems a Godsend to Ernest-especially when the necromancer claims he too has the ability to raise the dead with his own methods of salt and sorcery. Will Ernest's want for companionship trump his better judgement of meddling with Lovecraftian forces beyond man's understanding? And does Curwen have ulterior motives for wanting to bring Victor back?

The ending rewritten, but you know, gay.
