Something to Tell You
Jamal is a successful psychoanalyst and writer coming to terms with middle-age, an estranged relationship with his ex-wife, the awkward bond he shares with his 12 year old son, an intellectual yet pompous best friend and his loud, pierced, tattooed older sister Miriam. Jamal is haunted by the beautiful but troubled Ajita, his first love. These longing thoughts of Ajita are always accompanied by darker memories and pangs of guilt associated with one violent act.
Classic
The Outsider
Meursault doesn’t cry at his mother’s funeral. He sees an inevitability dictating life that others are choosing to ignore.
When he shoots a man on a beach, point blank, the blazing heat of the day is his only alibi, and the bullets have torn through reality.
Nobody wants to accept a motiveless murder. But Meursault will not lie to defend himself to an absurd legal system, the police or the dumbfounded clergy; determined to reflect the indifference of the universe, even unto death.
