There, he noted ideas for future works, extracts from books he had read, conversations overheard in the street, and reflections on travel, death, loneliness and art'. The Carnets are translated in a complete and unabridged from the original French edition based directly on the manuscript copy which Camus himself had made before his death. The Carnets are an invaluable addition to the other volumes of Camus' work at present available in translation. (Quote taken from the front flap of Carnets 1935 - 1942) ***'Albert Camus, born 7 Nov 1913 - died 4 Jan 1960, was a French philosopher, author, and journalist. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature at the age of 44 in 1957, the second youngest recipient in history.' (Wiki) ***A nice set of the first UK editions of 'Carnets 1935 - 1942' and 'Carnets 1942 - 1951' - of interest to collectors of the work of Albert Camus, and twentieth century literary first editions.
