On Wednesday 11th April from 7:30-10:00pm, The Hanoi Philosophy Forum will be hosting a public lecture and discussion on The Outsider by Albert Camus, one of the forefathers of existentialism and absurdism. 

This will be Pt. 5 of our 5 week Existentialism Series. 

After, we will meet at Bar Betta for drinks at 34 Cao Bá Quát
