The absurd, which Camus says has overtaken modern sensibilities, which is really a kind of obsession with the way we see the world today, (The absurd) is really a metaphysical thesis. It's, to put it very bluntly, a confrontation. It's a confrontation between the rational human mind, the mind that deserves and demands justice, that expects the universe to be comprehensible; and what Camus calls (in a phrase that he borrows straight from The Stranger) an indifferent universe.
The truth is: the world doesn't care.
