Earth is full of natural resources and minerals, various flora, and fauna, and along with them, the homo sapiens or humans. In the lap of this bountiful nature, man has been living his life making use of these resources. But man is also indulging in malpractices such as uprooting trees and resorting to gadgets and modern technology that are inimical to the ecological balance of Nature; the reason for this arrogance may be their indifference, ignorance, or selfishness. Authors and intellectuals wrote to disseminate an informed view to the readership. For instance, Albert Camus the French intellectual and Noble laureate of literature portrayed an epidemic condition of living in his book The Plague (Originally “La Peste” in French). In the novel the people of a city are all together living a life of bliss and ignorance, unaware of the natural hazards, meanwhile, the epidemic in The Plague of Albert Camus spread throughout the city and devastates all around. Huge suffering was caused to them, and the absurdity of the same has a parallel in the recent pandemic of Covid 19. The aim of this paper is to render a ‘new’ meaning to their mundane lives from which there is no chance of emancipation and liberation.
