Honestly, I don't really see how The Stranger could possibly benefit the former president, George Bush. Although I have to admit that both Gov. Bush and the main character, Meursault share some similarities, but what will he learn from reading this?
That you can randomly kill an Arab?
I wonder if he learned anything from reading The Stranger. Hmmmm....
I personally believe that this book will not benefit the general public. I don't even know how this novel was awarded a noble prize in literature. I don't even understand why anyone will decide to keep on reading this book after reading the first chapter. I guess the only reason I actually read the book was because Ms. Collin's told me that she really enjoyed this book. I kept on reading thinking that something would happen... but nothing exciting happened.
But I have to say, I realized that my life is so much more fun compared to Meursault's boring routine life. My life is so amazing, full of emotions, laughter, reasons, and choices.
