Looking into the pandemic as a retrospective... it's really impressive how much of The Plague resonates because Camus pinpoints the specific details in urban life and modern society that give sanity to people.

A meaningful thing with "The Plague" is that in the midst of the growing epidemic in the story, one of the main characters, Tarrou, opines in a summative description of life as the plague rages on, "...I'm no different. But what matter? Death means nothing to men like me. It's the event that proves them right."
The moment the book spills open Camus' perceptions of the world in this moment, it gets goooooooood.
