And, the better, less tendentious, more true quote from Camus is the
feeling of
being an internal exile, imao. Since almost everyone we encounter in *The
Plague*
does more than mark time. That applies to the people we readers are not
like; those
who are 'simply' marking time.

And I personally push back on everyone who says they can not tell what day
of the week it is.
Only writers marking time in general. An Ivory-pure, if they are honest,
percentage---(98.x%) knows
what fucking day of the week it is.

Sorry, Jochen, I am not fond.
