The stranger: A Murderer
Im completely amazed. it´s just so awkard and bizarre!! Well if you don´t know why I´m freaking out is because Monsieur Meursault ended up being a killer, not only a person without feelings but a killer! In the second part of the book we see all the suspense of when Monsieur Muersault kills the Arab. The consequences that he had to deal with were going to jail. Here is were i realized that Monsieur Meursault doesnt have a meaning for life. He just didn´t think it was a big deal. "Then he wanted to know if I had hired an ottorney. I admited I hadn't and inquired whether it was really necessary to have one.....I thought my case was pretty simple"(pg 63). Is he going to change in some part of the book. I see it in a very realistic and normal way and think that a person with that sort of attitude and lack of feelings, will never change or will never try to change. Nevertheless Meursault does show some kind of feeling towards the man he killed, but not in a very special way. "He simply asked in the same weary tone, if I was sorry for what I had done. I thought about it for a minute and said that more than sorry I felt annoyed."(pg.) Talking in the court he seems to be so calm and without worries that still makes me think he will never change. In my personal opinion, jail is one of the worst places in tho whole world but we know for Meusieur Meursault there is nothing in the world.

I really like the topics you choose for this blog entry consernign his lack of feelings. I also agree with you that I never thought that Mersault could become a killer. A cold hearted one actually.
Your blog is really capturing, especially the introduction of your paragraph. How can someone kill another person, and feel completely ok with it? I totally agree with you on what you said about Meursault not having feelings, and your quotes compliment your opinions really well!
