4 Camus as Soft Imperialist
Camus claims that the purpose of his work is to strike a middle ground between Arab nationalists and French chauvinists. Does he succeed, or does he simply become a softer apologist for French imperialism? I think that although his work brought up a big number of controversies and debates, Albert Camus did in fact succeed at positioning himself in the middle ground. While reading Algerian Chronicles, we should bear in mind that he himself was born in Algeria and lived there until he was about 30, when he moved to France.

5 О непокорности и любовном аромате рожкового дерева
А скажите, как у вас с Парижем, Прагой и Флоренцией? Чувствовали ли вы тоску по простору и взмахам крыльев? Может крыши утреннего Монмартра не так хороши после долгого проживания, а круассан недостаточно восхитителен, при обмакивании в чашку горячего кофе?
Я бы тоже задумалась, если бы мне, прямо в лицо, открылся, словно рот или рана, Алжир. Тот который страна и город. И между прочим, опасный в своей самодостаточности, потому как душу иссушает и только даёт. Вот так просто - сплошное наслаждение и никакого желания учиться и работать. Страшное место, требующее ясновидцев, сиречь безутешных душ. И тут же тебе - солнце, море, красно-белые терассы, цветы и девушки со стройными ногами. И будь счастлив... пока молод.
