Albert Camus's "The Plague" is a novel-parable. A terrible disease arrives in the city, and people begin to die. The city fathers, concealing the truth, hold the residents hostage to the epidemic. And everyone faces a choice: to fight for life, look for a way out, or resign themselves to the rule of the plague and the inevitability of death. Many literary critics "read" the events of the Nazi occupation of France into the novel.
