Spoofing current ideals in male main characters/love interests?

It seems to me that because of the deep and broad themes Camus covers within the (apparently) strict borders of a male protagonist in The Stranger, that this work can (apparently) be disputed as a book that says more about the male psyche than the human psyche (as I would imagine is intended). I say apparently in these brackets because this is all something of a phenomenon, every dispute I've had with a female about the book has given the impression that as a female reader she could not relate to the novel and it's message. THUS, it is my advice that if you want a good understanding of male characters in books, you dissect the protagonist Meursault.

If you do do this and base your character or one of his traits on Meursault then try to make his name a subtle reference? I love it when authors do that.

Justin Time. He could have an odd phobia that he has to overcome, ie. Fear of birds, children, red doors.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
