Notes from Underground

Meer over het boek

The narrative centers on a civil servant in St. Petersburg, known only as the Underground Man, who reflects on his profound isolation and disconnection from society. Through a series of memoir-like entries, he explores his inner thoughts and feelings, revealing a deep sense of alienation. The concept of "underground" symbolizes his emotional and social detachment, illustrated poignantly in a moment of listening through a crack in the floor. This introspective work delves into themes of loneliness and the human condition.
