Query: Short story, profound thoughts

For the first half of the book, I was kind of wondering how this was an existentialist masterpiece. It wasn't bad, it wasn't completely pointless, but it lacked depth. I was too quick to try to clue this book out, I suppose. Eventually, it all tied together and I could see how profound it was.I think this is a book that warrants multiple readings and quite a deal of analysis afterwards. I don't want to go into my own analysis too much partly because I don't think I've completely figured out what I think about it. Do I sympathise with Meursault? Or am I getting sucked into his perspective, his bias in the narrative?In any case, it should stick in your mind for quite a while after reading it, as your brain picks it apart, and I think this makes it well worth reading. It is surprisingly easy to get through anyway. I would, however, like to dust off my French to read the original as I do wonder if the language has been simplified or dulled a little in translation.
