Based on this ancient Greek myth, Albert Camus wrote Le Mythe de Sisyphe (The Myth of Sisyphus) in 1942, a philosophical essay inviting us to reflect on the human condition. At some point in our lives, we have all experienced the absurdity of our own condition, in certain situations, or in the simple fact of feeling alienated from ourselves or the world. The feeling of rebellion that animates him then gives life its price and restores its grandeur. If life has no other face than that of the absurd, then what counts is not to live the best, but to live the most.

And we understand that "each grain of this stone, each mineral shard of this mountain full of night, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself towards the summits is enough to fill a man's heart. Imagine Sisyphus happy...".
