The Plague (Vintage Classic Hardback Edition) by Albert Camus
- ISBN-: 978-8182475861
- Page-: 258
- Editon-: 2021
The Plague is an extraordinary classic that tells the story from the point of view of a narrator of a plague sweeping the French Algerian city of Oran. The narrator remains unknown until the start of the last chapter, chapter 5 of part 5. The novel presents a snapshot of life in Oran as seen through the author’s distinctive absurdist point of view. Camus used as source material the cholera epidemic that killed a large proportion of Oran’s population in 1849, but situated the novel in the 1940s. Oran and its surroundings were struck by disease several times before Camus published his novel. According to an academic study, Oran was decimated by the bubonic plague in 1556 and 1678, but all later outbreaks (in 1921 – 185 cases, 1931 – 76 cases, and 1944 – 95 cases) were very far from the scale of the epidemic described in the novel.

The Stranger (Classic Edition) by Albert Camus, Hardcover
- ISBN-: 978-8182475786
- Page-: 114
- Editon-: 2021
The stranger is a story about an Algerian, Meursault, the titular character who commits a murder after attending his mother’s funeral. His understanding of the world, his emotional spectrum, and the general absurdities of the time all combine to form a compelling read. The story is aptly divided into two riveting sections, both told from the perspective of Meursault, who gives us his views before the murder in the first section and later walks us through his state of mind after the murder in the second section. The two parts in this thrilling novel encompass the protagonist’s mindset through the ordeal of grieving for his mother’s death while also coming face to face with his own moral compass for committing a murder.

How to Play Guitar by Vivek Verma (HB)
You can easily learn guitar just by reading a complete guide book. Learning to play a musical instrument dose not have to be difficult, require years of practicing, or even necessitate reading notes. We all are musical, and we need simpler ways of accessing our innate musicality.
Using “open tunings” and a tool like the Guitar (most accomplished guitar players use “open tunings” and two similar tools, the “capo” and the “slide”) makes the guitar an extremely easy instrument to play, just for the fun of it.
So easy that most adults find this method very appealing as well ( even music teachers and music therapists most who are taught traditional fingering methods in school never feel comfortable enough to continue to play that way). “How to play Guitar” is a complete guide for beginner.SKU: abhhtpg
