Ойын-сауық
Author Albert Camus was just 11-months-old when his father was killed in action during The Battle of the Marne; his mother, partially deaf and illiterate, then raised her boys in extreme poverty. Years later, in 1957, Camus was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Shortly after the occasion, he wrote to his beloved former teacher, Louis Germain, who once steered young Camus on the path he now trod so well. Germain replied.

Albert Camus was NOT known for this. That letter affords a look at an extremely rare side of him. I've read every English translated book I could of his. I tried to learn French so I could read The Actuelles. Sincerity is in such short supply in this world. I'm so happily subscribed to this channel!
Always a pleasure to hear him read letters! ♥
I absolutely love the event and this letter.

Yo tuve gran respeto siempre por mis maestras y maestros. Learning is a challenge for those of us, too good looking to be born sighted. Good storytellers are a treasure. Thank you for these videos. They are a joy! ¡Señor Cumberbatch, gracias!
I love you and I miss you loads Benedict
