A short and easy read, supposedly a classic. I found it depressing. The protagonist is shallow, self centered and uncaring with no respect for human life in any form whether it be his mother, his girlfriend, another man's girlfriend or a man on a beach. In the end he didn't learn anything....there is no closure. His life message appears to be that life is meaningless, although he does seem to wish he could avoid the guillotine.
