Marie Cardona is the fiancée of the title character, Meursault, in “the Outsider” by Albert Camus. She represents the enjoyable life Meursault desires. Marie Cardona is a sexual fantasy and symbolic object to Meursault. She is replaceable. She could be any girl.
The work is based on personal reading experience of “the Outsider”. The misogynistic narrative interfered the reader to enjoy the philosophy and perspective behind the book. As the plot develops, the eyes keep moving forward, but the brain sticks on the misogynistic part. The description keeps repeating again and again.

在卡繆的著名作品「異鄉人」中，有一位不斷被主角提及的女性角色 Marie Cardona。在故事中Marie與主角 Meursault 相識相愛並發展成訂婚的關係，對Mersault來說Marie代表了他對美好生活的一切追求與想像，但對他來說Marie並不是特別的存在，她只是對於性的渴求與幻想中的象徵，而Marie的存在價值可被任何一位女孩所代替。
當閱讀這本書的時候，思緒不斷地被文內的厭女描述所侵擾，每當一頁接著一頁地閱讀，前面章節的厭女描述卻不斷地在腦中閃現，而無法吸收其背後所代表的意涵。
