It's the idea that it comes down to a choice between life and self inflicted death that seems a bit melodramatic.
I'm only a third or less through his book on this exact subject, so I don't know yet how far he's going to take things (as in what sense he meant that well known statement to be taken). So far, it's been more of an examination of the basic positions of other absurdists.
