"The Stranger" by Albert Camus

Society has a series of parameters and "ways of acting" according to the situation. If you don't act as you've been expected to, you get rejected and are catalogued as insane and seen as a strange creature. This was the case of Meursault, a man that didn't see the need of acting the way he was "supposed to", and for this, he was condemned to death.
As the title of the book indicates, Meursault was a stranger in the eyes of society and in the eyes of the reader. Throughout the book, Camus shows different common situations using the first-person point of view, that make the reader anticipate what is going to happen next, but then, Meursault does the opposite (most of the times). With this, Camus makes the reader comprehend how the character was seen by the rest of the people at the time.
