The Stranger: Feelings

As we know Meurssault is still in jail because of the Arab´s murder. But at this part of the book something that personaly didnt believe that was possible happens. Meursalut is completely alone in jail so here he has time to think of the meaning of his life and of what he has done with it. He even starts to talk alone and here he realizes how lonely he is. What I think is Meursault´s problem is that he does not want to get hurt by nobody and therefore demonstrates to the society that he doesnt care of nothing at all. Theres an example y was thinking about that supports completely my statement. "Nevertheless I answered that I had pretty much lost the habit of analyzing myself and that it was hard for me to tell him what he wanted to know" (pg.65). Here Meursault is being asked by the attourney about his feeling towards his mother but he still wont show anybody that he cares for other people. Also when he has a new nickname: "Meusieur Antichrist" because he denies god and says that he wont believe in him. This is what meursault is trying to make belive the other characters of the book but us as readers we see that Meursault is experiencing change in his life. Who would´ve thinked that jail, something that at the beggining when meursault just entered, would make the main character change the way I think he is changing. Its good that he starts to get feeling for other people and also for him.
