Characters

Thinking about what kind of drawings I might include for this project I thought getting a good idea of the characters would help as they are probably what my drawings are going to be based on.

List of Characters:
  • Meursault- main character who is judged for his unique outlook on life
  • Marie Cardona- girlfriend of Meursault she has a noticeably keening interest in the relationship than him. 
  • Raymond Sintes- Meursaults neighbour and friend. He is a pimp with a violent nature.
  • Meursault’s Mother - dead but there are references to there relationship and her move to old people's home
  • The Chaplain - a priest who visits Meursault while he's being trialled. Key to pointing out Meursaults views.
  • Thomas Perez - old resident who is very close friend to Meursault's mother.
  • The Examining Magistrate - question's Meursault after arrest. Shocked about his reaction to moms death
  • The Caretaker - chats with Meursault when he is waitng with coffin. Appears in court later
  • The Director - run's the old people's home
  • Celeste - a owner of cafe Meursault eat's at. He also stands up for his at his trial.
  • Masson - Raymond's friend who invites them down to his beach house. Where the shooting happens
  • The Prosecutor - argue's the case to put him behind bar's. Describes him as a cool calculating monster
  • Salamano - Meursault's neighbour who beats his dog which has Mange. He crys at its death however
  • The Arab - brother of Raymond's mistress. Man who is shot my Meursault's 
I thought listing out the characters would help me to reference back to part's in the story as well as help me to keep an idea of what there role was. I was also thinking of possibly Drawing them all out in a sort of photo montage for the book binding might be a good idea. I would probably have to decide to take some out for this however. 

There are three main Character Meursault, Marie and Raymond. I feel it may be important to have them fetureing in the pictures at least one. Getting an of the sort of fashions and appearance of people there may help me to draw them. Also thinking about there characters.
