Camus' seemingly simple writing style effectively plays with the emotions of the reader throughout the entire novel. While leaving it up to the readers' to see past the short and neutral sentences, Camus attempts to illustrate a truly complex side of Meursault that evolves over the span of the text. Camus' unique writing style represents the voice of Meursalt as narrator, and serves as the readers' direct way into the emotions of the protagonist. Camus truly tests his readers with his novel The Stranger, and provides the perfect example for how style can directly effect the characters's emotions within.
