The Outsider - Albert Camus

In The Outsider Camus explores the alienation of an individual who refuses to conform to social norms.
Meursault, his anti-hero, will not lie. When his mother dies, he refuses to show his emotions simply to satisfy the expectations of others.
And when he commits a random act of violence on a sun-drenched beach near Algiers, his lack of remorse compounds his guilt in the eyes of society and the law.
Yet he is as much a victim as a criminal.
