Summary/Abstract: This paper will examine the concept of the Other in Literature by introducing many cultural, philosophical, religious, ethical, and aesthetic issues. In fact, the Other can be considered in the function of cultural, ethical, ethnic, and social belonging. The perception of the Other is also inseparable from self-construction and personal identity preoccupations, as well as from the construction of relationships with the other:This is a sui generis articulation and self-articulation within illusion, fiction, and reality.The Concept of the Other has a very particular resonance in the novels of Camus (The stranger) and Pashku (Oh). The concept of absurd as a perception of the Other, as an articulation of the self and as a generator of mutual relations makes these authors very special in literature. The examination of convergences and differences in the novels of these authors will shed light thorough this paper by interrogating the lieuxcommuns between Albanian and French literary space, with a special regard to the relationships of us versus them.
