    A sublime confession how love for a man can sometimes be one sided and that in order for it to prosper, one must carry on why thinking of thoughts that will leave an abstract hole between reality and spirituality. How each word spoken are melted plates of gold that will never glaciate, and will only live on as a dream. an abstract longing, incurable and dispiriting. Thinking simply of thoughts, one must weight the heaviness of such emotion amidst the crisis of change.

    The Stranger (French: L'Étranger [letʁɑ̃ʒe], lit. 'The Foreigner'), also published in English as The Outsider, is a 1942 novella written by French author Albert Camus. The first of Camus's novels to be published, the story follows Meursault, an indifferent settler in French Algeria, who, weeks after his mother's funeral, kills an unnamed Arab man in Algiers. The story is divided into two parts, presenting Meursault's first-person narrative before and after the killing.Camus completed the initial manuscript by May 1941, with revisions suggested by André Malraux, Jean Paulhan, and Raymond Queneau that were adopted in the final version. The original French-language first edition of the novella was published on 19 May 1942, by Gallimard, under its original title; it appeared in bookstores from that June but was restricted to an initial 4,400 copies, so few that it could not be a bestseller. Even though it was published during the Nazi occupation of France, it went on sale without censorship or omission by the Propaganda-Staffel. Considered a classic of 20th-century literature, The Stranger has received critical acclaim for Camus's philosophical outlook, absurdism, syntactic structure, and existentialism (despite Camus's rejection of the label), particularly within its final chapter. Le Monde ranked The Stranger as number one on its 100 Books of the 20th Century. In Le Temps it was voted the third best book written in French in the 20th and 21st century by a jury of 50 literary connoisseurs. The novella has twice been adapted for film: Lo Straniero (1967) and Yazgı (2001), has seen numerous references and homages in television and music (notably "Killing an Arab" by The Cure), and was retold from the perspective of the unnamed Arab man's brother in Kamel Daoud's 2013 novel The Meursault Investigation.

    What if luck wasn't a blessing but a curse that isolates you from everything you truly value? Edward "Luckless" Lockless has spent decades as the university's janitor, beloved by everyone despite his legendary bad luck. When colleagues surprise him with an expensive metal detector for his birthday as an ironic joke he laughs. But finding a mysterious carved meteorite changes everything. Suddenly, Edward's luck transforms dramatically-money flows, opportunities appear, and he acquires wealth beyond his wildest dreams. Yet with each stroke of fortune, he loses something far more precious: the genuine connections and love that once made his life meaningful. As his former best friend Professor Taho Stormluck becomes obsessed with claiming the artifact as rightfully belonging to his people, Edward must confront a terrible truth-some gifts come with a price too heavy to bear. An exploration of fate, friendship, and the true nature of fortune that asks: Is it better to be burdened by luck?
