Nassim Taleb mentioned The Plague, The Fall, Exile and the Kingdom, and Selected Essays by Albert Camus 1 times

In the novel The Plague by Albert Camus, a character spends part of his life searching for the perfect opening sentence for a novel. Once he had that sentence, he had the full book as a derivation of the opening. But the reader, to understand and appreciate the first sentence, will have to read the entire book.
