The Rebel

Albert Camus · Éditions Gallimard, Paris · 1951

French original-language true first: Gallimard, Paris, 1951 (L'Homme révolté). The first edition in English is Hamish Hamilton, London, 1953 (trans. Anthony Bower, introduction by Sir Herbert Read) — the UK precedes the US. Alfred A. Knopf, New York, 1954 is the first American edition and is collected in its own right, but it is not the first in English and must not be catalogued as such.
