L'étranger

A single-issue French comic from Gallimard, L'étranger (2013) adapts Albert Camus's classic existentialist novel into a graphic format. The series is most closely associated with the adaptation by writer and artist Jacques Ferrandez, who brings the stark, sun-drenched Algerian landscape and Meursault's detached narration to life. As a one-shot, it offers a faithful, visually rendered entry point to a cornerstone of 20th-century literature, demonstrating the medium's power to reinterpret modern classics.
