The ending of The Stranger leaves us, say, dissapotinted sice Mersault doesn't even try to defend himself during his trial. Even when the the trial ended with the decision of "chopping" his head as a punishment, he had nothing to say to noone. He took the decision like it is something irelevant for him, that is without any matter for his own life. I think that the character of Mersault portrays a person that has the courage to do and say everything that a person with senses and morals would. Hence, in my opinion, Camu created the protagonist with such a personality that is not afraid to hide it, but rather show it and not care about the comments of others. But, what can a reader add more, Mersault did this all to himself. He could've had a different life that would've had taken him towards different courses if he would've acted differently towards others, towards his own life.
