Given the time
and setting of
the novel, PLague
of Albert Camus,
Catholicism
is of course a
major theme.
Yet, Camus
challenges his
Catholic readers
to look squarely
at the emptiness
that accompanies
our most painful losses.
Unlike abstract
treatments of the
problem of evil,
Camus directs us
to the concrete
personal lives
that make us
feel the pain and loss.
