In The Myth of Sisyphus, Albert Camus explores the absurd—life’s lack of inherent meaning—through the Greek tale of Sisyphus, condemned to endlessly push a boulder uphill. This futile task symbolizes life’s struggles and our search for meaning in an indifferent universe. Camus argues that by accepting life’s absurdity, we gain freedom. His famous line, "One must imagine Sisyphus happy," suggests that embracing our fate, rather than resisting it, allows us to find our own purpose and contentment.
