Exile and the Kingdom (French: L'Exil et le Royaume) is a 1957 collection of six short stories by French writer Albert Camus. First published in French, in translation, it was not well received by contemporary English critics.[1] The underlying theme of these stories is human loneliness and feeling foreign and isolated in one's own society.[2] Camus writes about outsiders living in Algeria who straddle the divide between the Muslim world and France.[3]
