Abstract

The article focuses on the epidemic situation of the people, optimistic perception of minds in the critical habitation and about the theory of Absurdism. It elucidates about the hope in the mist of hopelessness. The main objective is that one should not lose hope in the hardest parts of life. The Plague talks about a specific quantum of people who do not even try to make sense of a meaningless disease. The townspeople lose hope and are ready to die after the death of their fellow beings which indicates people’s reluctance to accept the reality in an absurd situation. It focuses on Death, Suffering, Exile and Imprisonment. All these impersonal laws and procedures that allow government to treat people like statistics and with the same callousness that plagues epidemic. The catastrophe pushed us to face our mortality and accept our human existence rather than avoiding it through fear as well as diversion and should be more modest in acknowledging our smallness and our place in the universe.
