Summary/Abstract: "If you want to be a philosopher, write novels" affirmed Albert Camus during his literature beginnings. This, perhaps, more originary and more essentially expresses the existing dualistic character between the literature and the philosophy of Camus's work. Since the appearance of his first works, they were subject of debates and sometimes misunderstandings in France and also elsewhere. This particular phenomenon, in the field of literary reception, surprisingly, still continues today with the new literary and ideological developments in France and in the whole world.This article aims to emphasize, once again, the deeply humanist character of Camus' work based on the intense dialogue between his philosophical and literary work. His entire work highlights literary ideas morethan philosophical theses, and it especially express an artistic view to the service of humanity. The Camussian reflection continues to influence the current audience including the Albanian and Kosovar public. Camus remains stronglyfamiliar to the contemporary sensibility and reflection, to the Kosovar sensibility as well. His literary conceptions of absurd and revolt are always affirmed by enthusiastic university students; his views on solidarity and freedom still inspire the Kosovar intelligentsia to striveto create a better humanistic future.
