This edition of has been translated from the French by Stuart Gilbert. Originally published in 1947, The Plague by Albert Camus is the novel about a French Algerian city called Oran that is in the midst of a plague. For the novel, the author used material about the plague in Oran that occurred in 1849, which struck the city and its population hard. Ironically, the novel resurfaced as a best seller during the covid pandemic of 2020. Sales in Italy tripled and the publisher could not keep up as it became a top-ten bestseller.
