gangs that had carved up Chicago's rackets.
Nonetheless, reform-minded William E. Dever

complicated. Torrio and Capone decided to put many

An Exploration of? The Stranger? by Albert Camus
The Stranger is a book of many facets and meanings
most of which are not immediately apparent. In

telling in The Stranger is unique and at first
hard to come to grips with. It is not the story
which is especially complex but the manner in
which it is told. It is done by a narrator. In his
telling of his tale he neglects to mention several
