4.0 out of 5 stars
French language classroom edition,
By Jason Kirkfield "The Pride and Sorrow of chil... (Purple Mountains Majesty) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Albert Camus: L'Étranger
This mid-1950s Prentice-Hall edition, designed for advanced high school or intermediate college students, omits several passages:"The only change we have made in the text is the omission of four phrases, of about one line each, which might prove embarrassing in classroom reading." On the plus side, it includes a three-paragraph Preface (in French) by Camus, a sixteen-page Introduction (in English) by the editors*, and a long (forty-three page!) vocabulaire (Glossary). Comfortable readers of French would do best to stick with the original, or, for English, the Stuart Gilbert translation. * Both editors, leading French literature professors of their day, passed away recently.

False advertising,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Albert Camus: L'Étranger
Don't use this seller. Book was advertised as one edition, but seller mailed a completely different edition. Worse yet, seller failed to respond to 2 separate emails until well after Amazon agreed to credit my account.
