Option2-
The first person point of view allows the reader to follow along with every single thought of the main character Meursault. I noticed that the narrator, Meursault goes off on a lot of tangents while thinking and notices the slightest detail of things. I think Camus didn't use third person omniscient because he wanted to show Meursault's thought and feelings and by using first person he is able to do that. I think Camus's purpose with this choice is that it gives a sense of loneliness because every single narration is his thoughts and the things he does. Also we get to know Meursault better throught this point of view because it is in first person. It helps develop the theme of being a stranger in society.
