Compared to much of Camus' work - in particular the easily digestible L'Etranger / The Outsider - The Fall is a complex, multi-faceted and altogether strange work of fiction. I think it was Sartre that in fact said it was Camus' least understood piece of writing. Even leaving side the politics of the time (including the fall-out between Camus and Sartre) The Fall is an intriguing read. It is the monologue of a man, a former Parisian lawyer residing in the Netherlands, concerned with the losing of innocence and the duplicitous nature of humankind. A tricky read perhaps but when that can be read time and time again.
