"Strangers" first three chapters of part two
While reading the other three chapters, I started to become impatient of Meursalt’s behavior I wished to have a power to awake him and tell him that he should try to explain his feelings. Also I would have wanted to make him tell in details the events, because people who where to decide for his fate where misunderstanding his honesty. Throughout story I was hoping that the lawyer’s question will find some piece of innocence in Meursault’s action, a little justification or pretext that would have lightened the sentence. Indeed, I felt that the lawyer and the magistrate where truly trying to find a justification about Meursault’s by asking questions about the mother’s death; I suppose that they were trying to make a assumption that the mother’s death weakened the Meursault’s emotional state which might have lead to the unpredictable action, but Meursault with his naive honesty made it impossible. I really felt pity about Meursault because it seems that during his life he hasn’t learned anything about dishonesty. So, at the end of the third chapter of part two, my hopes about Meursault started to dim. But still I am hoping as an Albanian proverb says " hope dies the last."Can't wait to see what will happen next!
