The Stranger

This book has raised many, many questions for me. It has raised only questions though about how other people think. Mersualt as a character has opened my eyes to other peoples thoughts, I have always considered others feelings and opinions, but never their actual thoughts. Mersualt has a very lazy thought process, drifting calmly from thought to thought in his own personal random patterns. He is always calm in his emotions through situations that may be stressful or an "incredible annoyance" until in the final chapter he snaps and floods all of his most personal thoughts to the priest. It is hard from this stand point to figure out if he is truly an upset or disturbed person or if he is as content and happy as he seemed. I think probably that in section one he was happy, and he was content, but in section two he becomes depressed and sad.
