This chapter sheds light on what we cannot master, chance, and the place occupied by this face of the absurd in Camus’ œuvre. David H. Walker examines the premises of what Camus names “inexistential philosophy”, founded on the chasm at the heart of “man who lacks…”. He then outlines the ethical project evident in the evolution of Camus’ thought which seeks to reckon with contingency while at the same time opposing nihilism.
