Brave Genius: A Scientist, a Philosopher, and Their Daring Adventures from the French Resistance to the Nobel Prize (2013) by Sean Carroll
Now that I have walked the dog, delivered supplies to my disabled daughter, admired the great job she did of cleaning her apartment in time for an inspection, hiked 10k on muddy terrain, and showered, I am returning to reading Brave Genius: A Scientist, a Philosopher, and Their Daring Adventures from the French Resistance to the Nobel Prize (2013) by Sean Carroll. I stumbled upon this biography about Albert Camus, Jacques Monod, and their friendship after reading nearly all of Camus’ books and a book titled Chance and Necessity (1970) by Jacques Monod about how life on Earth may have arisen. Camus and Monod were both winners of Nobel Prizes. Sean Carroll quotes Albert Camus In the early pages of the biography: “I have known only one true genius: Jacques Monod.” Camus was modest. My belief is that Camus and Monod were both geniuses.
Sup girl, wanna smoke a bowl and talk about how the struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart?

Quite fond of Camus, heard good things about Ozon's new adaptation of L'etranger.
Crisp black & white capturing that languid, sun-bleached North African location, Voisin essaying the detachment of Meursault, gorgeous cinematography.
Adding The Cure on final credits was a nice touch. Nice to see veteran Dennis Levant cameoing too.
