question 2

True/False

In this selection we see Camus's overall assessment that life is absurd, meaningless. The only important philosophical question is, why not commit suicide? Life is compared with the myth of Sisyphus, wherein man is condemned by the gods to roll a huge stone up a mountain, watch it roll back down, and retrieve it, only to repeat the process endlessly.
-Camus thinks we should have no illusions about our lives and our deaths.
