The Stranger (1946)
In the story of an ordinary man who unwittingly gets drawn into a senseless murder on a sun-drenched Algerian beach, Camus was exploring what he termed "the nakedness of man faced with the absurd."

is it too much for our younger audience?

I do not believe it is in the public domain.

Are you sure, JBI - I think it's available in Penguin as The Outsider.

By public domain, essentially anything written before 1923 is available to be printed, copied, given away, and made into a movie without any form of permission. All books here have that permission, and can probably also be found at Project Gutenberg, a website specializing in collected texts. Camus' stranger is not in the public domain, since it was written after 1923, and therefore is subject to copyright by the Camus Estate, wherever that may be.
