Answer: So, in Chapter 1 of The Stranger, we have an absurd hero, Meursault, who hates useless labor, the culture of grieving and death, the rituals of the Sabbath, and the deterministic belief that a son must act thus and so after his mother's death. ... As an absurdist, Meursault would rather remember his mother alive.
