Sounds like you’ve got this week covered! I’ve only read L’Étranger in English, but I’m trying out “The Little Prince” in German. Don’t think I could even attempt to read any of Camus’ literature in German yet.
It is going to take me a while to complete that book since I am reading it intensively looking up everything I don’t understand. L’Étranger doesn’t use the passé simple tense so I went with it after trying several other books. Passé simple only seems to be used in books but not used in spoken French.
I also read graded readers like those from CLE to have something easier to read with hardly any lookups. InnerFrench podcast transcript are also good for easy read.
Ohh, interesting reason for going with that book, seems like you’ve read into the topic!
I gave up on reading once I realized I’m going to look up every third word even with the most simple books - so taking a break from that (except little prince) until I manage better. Even graded books for my level seemed too hard. But I’ll try again after taking my next course!
