written by Albert Camus? This is a question that naturally protrudes throughout the novel‚ as it is not abundantly clear what Meursault‚ the protagonist‚ was‚ in fact‚ put on trial for. At the beginning of the second part of the narrative‚ it is understood that he is put on trial for the murder of an Arab; however‚ it later comes to our attention that the murder was not the primary reason of his trial‚ and perhaps not even an essential one for that matter.
