As I kept on reading, Monsieur Meursault has kept the same identity which we saw at the beggining of the book. In chapters 2-4, we can see how Meursault´s environment changes but he still keeps his monotonous life an nothing in him changes. He meets a women that in some way makes him "feel", something that he is not very in touch with. They go together to the movies and start dating. My opinion about this event is that the insensitive part of Monsieur Meursault needs to have a role in his life, and for me an excellent way to do it is being with a women and trying to feel something like love. I believe this drastic change in his life, won´t work out well, because love is a very strong feeling and you just can´t force it.
Later on I got really confused of what were Monsieur Meursault´s expectatives towards this woman he met. If you analyze deeply the part were his neighbor Raymond invites him to his house and talks about his wife, you´ll see how his actions are not coherent with what he thinks. I think this because As they talk about His neighbors wife, I could realize what is their projections towards women. They talk about women in a rough and rudimentary way, like if they didnt matter at all. For them is completely normal to beat women and treat them inferiorly. For me this is a huge problem for both women and Monsieur Meursault because this discrimination is very affective in a persons life and for Monsieur Meursault this search for feelings might affect his way of life, but really it´s now being affected.

You seem to be forming some interesting ideas about Mersault. Why not support them with text? Also, avoid plot summary. How are you reacting to reading this.

"Treat them as inferiors"
"work out because" "person's" "his"
